Problems printing with Flexfill98

Hello this is my first post to this forum. I am having problems printing Flexfill 98A. See pictures attached - This is the second time I have had this problem with Flexfill 98. The first time I ended up changing the nozzle, re-calibrating the printer and dialing the extrusion multiplier back to 1.0. I thought I had it beat. Today after successfully printing with Flexfill the last few days i get the same filament jam. I can immediately load PLA and print fine - but if I reload Flexfill it will buckle and jam at the same point in the print. I left the Flexfill filament in the cold nozzle overnight instead of purging with PLA. Is this a partially plugged nozzle? Changing the nozzle and re-calibrating is a pain - any suggestions?

I have a the following:
Original I3 MK2
Slic3r Prusa Addition
using standard SemiFlex or Flexfill 98A setting except as noted below
.15mm Optimal
40% fill
1.73 filament diameter
1.0 extrusion multiplier
101 scale

I was hoping to print many of these same parts but can't get more than approximately 5 prints between jams/failures.

Any help would be appreciated
