Just got my Taz 6 with a dual extruder v3…

I’m having a few issues.

1. is this tool head play normal? [lulzbot Taz 6 dual tool head play - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8Xq0OjNBY0)

2. The hot ends keep heat creeping regardless of my retraction settings… is there a fix?

1. That play isn’t normal. You may need to do some “fine tuning” of the bottom of the tool head back plate.

2. There are a couple of fixes for the heat creep. I’m assuming you have a Dual Extruder V3 and if so, the [V3.1 conversion kit](https://shop.lulzbot.com/dual-v3-to-v3-1-hardware-conversion-kit-kt-hd0023?ref=KT-HD0023) should help but I prefer [this one](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3213878). With care, you can use the stock fan without cutting the wires. There are also higher CFM 40mm 5v fans available from Noctua (NF-A4x10 5V and NF-A4x20 5V).

If you want to really get carried away, [https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3098955](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3098955) or [https://forum.lulzbot.com/t/duel-v3-heat-creep-fix/6881](https://forum.lulzbot.com/t/duel-v3-heat-creep-fix/6881)

Printed and installed!

Discovered some z banding found a bent lead screw, removed the bearings and got a way better print.

Changed out the tool head bottom mount holder and head no longer wobbles!
