Unrealiable Filament Extrusion

Hi everyone,

Currently having an issue with the printer not always extruding enough filament or just not putting any half everyone now and again through a print (I attached some images below to have a look) I pulled out the filament and it was really squeezed at some points (again image attached below)
I have tried upping the temperature and feed rate but not sure where to go from this.
Any help is much appreciated

:D Hi,Cfluxe.
You can check if your supplies are fully inserted.
Then check if the spring of the feeder is too loose, you can add cardboard at the spring to increase the spring force;
Then measure the drive plate of the extruder, the normal range: 0.8-1.2V
