Pre-print retraction gcode weirdness

I get a big ooze string of PETG-CF during heating. The Intro Line causes it to curl up and stick to the nozzle/heatblock, starting every print with a mangled blob.

I tried to modify the Intro Line code, but the G80 Mesh Bed Leveling always returns to X0 Y0 Z0, so smushing the ooze is inevitable.

Plan B is to add a pause/prompt for me to clean the nozzle after heating, then force a retraction before bed leveling. I'd undo the retraction just before the intro line.

This plan worked great when I put the new start code in a text file, saved it as .gcode, and ran it on the printer.

When I put the same gcode in the "custom gcode/start gcode" in PS, the printer does some weird stuff. If I G1 E-5 F1000 to retract, nothing happens. I tried G1 E5 F1000 just to troubleshoot and squirt some filament out, and the X and Y axes moved 5mm and the extruder didn't move at all. Gcode below (taken from the PS-exported .gcode file, not from the dialogue box in the GUI). What gives?

Reply to anyone who might read this - I power cycled the printer and now my code works as it should. I suppose "stop print"-ing many times while trying to debug this routine left the machine in some weird state.
