It extruded fine when it wasn't printing. That was the first thing I looked at.

Petg, 240 no cooling. I can crank it, but should be ok there.

It was after a few tpu prints, that may have caused some sticking. Not sure.

Got the same thing going now with pla, 200 maybe cooling, didn't look. And it's fine.
Ohhhhh yes TPU causes prints to mess up. Its gummy and sticks in the nozzle. Takes forever to clean out. TPU is interesting and I like to use it for things but the clean up is awful and I have troubles for a few prints afterwards.

I use this through the top swirl it around over and over to clean it out.

Made some teethers from tpu, now a random flow generator. I'll dig around for some way to clean up after. Also would probably help to take it out right after, not reheat everything to remove it.

It sticks bad, worse than removing molten hot glue from your finger tips.

I vote replace the nozzle if you're running typical brass nozzle. If hardened it should last a little longer... may be the tpu like you commented
