Insane stringing out of nowhere
Greetings,
I am having an issue where all my prints recently started stringing. I have tried several PLA filaments and a PETG filament with the same results.
I have dried my filaments to ensure it wasn't moisture in the filament with the exact same results. I am not entirely sure what caused it as it was printing completely fine a few weeks prior.
My printer is currently using an E3D Revo Six. I tried switching nozzles from 0.4 to 0.6 to see if it was a nozzle problem but it didn't seem to help anything.
E3D is currently sending me a new heater core as a possibility but it didn't sound like they were too sure that was the true issue.
I messed with retraction a bit on my own along with some Chat support from Prusa with no resolution.
I even took apart my extruder assembly to check for any abnormalities with nothing sticking out to me. The idler tension was checked as well and was found as a non issue.
My friend now currently has the printer and is looking it over to see if I missed something and he has found nothing as well.
I am at my ends wit here, so any advice I would welcome.

I figured it out. I got replacement nozzles for my Revo and I'm back to printing back to normal. I had some really bad clogs on my nozzles that I seem to have made worse and now they aren't extruding filament correctly (i.e. the terrible amount of stringing).
