Ok I am still having extruder flow issues, in order to get the extruder to work at all i need to head the extruder to 230, my estep it set to 100, I am using 3mm pla.
The extruder will initally flow but blocks after a few minuets of printing an actual soloution would be good.

here is a picture of the latest print i tired, as you can see the print started but becomes stingy and lumpy and the extruder blocks causing the motor to pulse.

I am so sorry, I ignored something, If there is a big gear on the extruder, the Estep is 760, otherwise, the Estep is 95.
Please take a picture.

I thought of my experience, which is similar to you.
There are two things you should do:
1. Check the Estep.
2. Check your slic3r settings.
