Spacing between heat sink and heating block

I completely disassembled my hot end to clear a stubborn blockage but now I can’t get anything to stick to the print bed. I’m thinking that the spacing between the heating block and the heat sink may be an issue. How do you determine the correct spacing?

Thanks!

Re: Spacing between heat sink and heating block

have you redone the live Z calibration? How does that look?

I can't get anything to stick on the XYZ Calibration. I reseated the nozzle as per the link above (thanks!) but no luck...

It won't stick like the nozzle is too far away, or too close, or just does not stick at all?

When my PEI gets stubborn after a bunch of prints, I use the scrubbing side of a kitchen sponge to lightly "scrub" the PEI with the bed cold.
Wipe clean with IPA, and give it a shot

Anything can be made better
