A1 AMS Lite - Difficult to thread filament into AMS
I have been using my A1 and AMS Lite for just over a year and all has been going well, for the most part. But it "seems" like it is becoming more difficult to thread the filament into the AMS. Once I can get it into the gears, it works perfectly normal, but it just feels like something it interfering with the filament, blocking me from pushing it in the the AMS. If I play with it a lot, I can eventually get it into the gears and then all works, but it is frustrating having to goof around with it for 30 seconds or longer.
Am I going crazy? I looked for answers on the internet but it seems like all the answers address other issues, not a single one could I find that addressed just getting the filament into the AMS. And as I said, once the filament is in, it works perfectly.
I am holding off pulling the AMS apart as it does still work (for now). I'd like to get some feedback first. Maybe there is a lubrication issue? I don't know yet.
Thanks for any help.
