Thanks guys,
@Chadd - yes I can see it happening but I cannot figure out why. Going to look more closely as I work through it.
@Roxy - good thought as it seems shorter runs are less susceptible to this issue. I will give it a shot
@Bobby Lin - Belt tension was also on my list of troubleshooting steps but I forgot to add it to my opening post list. The fact that the first layer is perfect had me looking looking elsewhere. It has been a while since I've checked the Y idlers against the rails, but I am pretty sure they are good. I did look at the x carriage path along the v rails thinking filament flakes or something could be on the rail, no such luck.
You all have given me some food for thought. When I get home I will try your suggestions. My gut still makes me think it's something in the extruder. I have a .4 nozzle that I will try while I acetone bath my .35 to clean and rule out partial cloggage. I will update once I have had a chance to work on it.
Thank you.
