I had a filament stuck error on the P1S combo (first time, I’m a pretty new user). I got the extruder out. I couldn’t get the PTFE tube out of the extruder, so, per what I saw online, cut it. I’ve got the filament out of the extruder. I still need to clean it out of the hot end. But my problem is that I still can’t get the remaining piece of PTFE tubing out of the extruder. Please don’t suggest printing a tool, as I need to fix the printer before doing that! How can I get this piece of old tubing out? As you can see, it’s a bit roughed up where I cut it. Help!
Just press the black ring evenly. Then press the tube in a bit to release the binding, and then you can pull it out.

Sometime, it’s a bit hard because you homed the tube all the way in already. So, just press the black ring as hard as you can, then try push the tube a little bit in more.

After a ton of trial and repeats, I was finally able to get it out.
