Some issues with new MakerFarm Prusa 8 i3v

[TehStranger]

My recommendation would be to go through a complete calibration cycle. I would start with trying to get the temperature right:


And then, I would check that the amount of filament extruded exactly matched reality. That print looks horrible, but I'm thinking with the temperature right and the extruder putting out the right amount of filament it will look good.

Sorry I forgot to make a post saying I fixed it. The problem was I forgot to load the config in Slic3r... Silly me haha. I printed a fan duct and it looks amazing!

So now the only problem is the filament leaking from the top of the heat block and I think that's my fault because I unscrewed it today and I may have damaged it while trying really really hard to tighten it :'(

Is there anything I can use to patch it up?

I just noticed there is some white stuff on my cogs, any idea what it could be?
