How would the feeder spring's tension impact the print quality with Flex PLA?

Hey! printed the feeder yesterday, installed it today. Works like a charm, or at least now the filament doesn't slip anymore. Now the problem is that there isn't enough material coming out of the nozzle. I reduced the filament diameter setting and played around with the temperature, but the outflow is still "intermittent". Any guesses?

Thanks for the welcome, I'm using the original PLA Flex that I ordered with my UM. You mean oil in the tube? Unfortunately I didn't get that far yet, the filament always slips from the feeding bolt. I'll have a look at the alternative feeder.

Hi, had my UM2 for a while now and wanted to try my luck with PLA Flex, but every time I insert it into the printer, after a few centimeters, the filament slips from the bolt and I can't do anything about it. Am I missing something essential? Hope the information I gave is sufficient. Best
