      OK I have tried cleaning the nozzle with some steel wool I had, and that helped to remove a bit of it, but not all of it.

        Do you have a spare nozzle to try out? Sometimes the orifice can become enlarged from wear and cause issues. For example I ran a couple spools of Glow in the Dark filament through my old printer and it trashed the entire filament path through the extruder and made my nozzle orifice look like a figure 8.
