Layer height issue after missing gear screw

Hello, a few months back my MK2S the locking screw in the extruding gear backed itself out and was lost.  I replaced the screw and now when I print, it will lay down around 4cm of good filament, and then it turns into a stream the size of a thread.  Very odd.  Full calibration was done multiple times including the first layer.  I adjusted the tension screws.  The same thing happens every time.  I suspected that maybe the screw fell down into the tube but I would have expected a full block.  I am out of ideas and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.  Thanks!
