@fcwilt so I did a G32 and had to adjust the knobs again, and then ran a G29 with one probe and F100... it took a while, but mesh looks much better. We'll see how it looks tomorrow after a 20hr print.
Sounds promising.
So finished the print and ran another G29... this time it was still a good mesh and worked well. Not sure but thinking I may want to tune my stepper motors to help reduce them falling, one side or the other.
One of the benefits of auto bed leveling is getting the Z steppers back in sync.
On my 3 Z printer when removing the magnetic print surface a stepper sometimes moves due to the reduced current levels.

Printers: A FT-5 with the 713 upgrade bits, a custom MarkForged style, a small Utilmaker style, a small CoreXY from kit and a E3D MS/TC setup. Various hotends. Using Duets (2 and 3) running 3.4.6

@fcwilt Thanks mate - I've just got BL Touches delivered and am going to put those in versus the EZABL probe.. that will be todays task.

Stumbled today upon this unboxing video. The printer has two Z motors as well as a belt that keeps them sync'ed. It's an interesting idea.

Thanks.
I've got one of the earlier, smaller Sapphire Core XY unit
It was a pretty nice unit of the box.
But I cannot help myself and had to mod it (Duet, PanelDue, better hotend, Zesty Nimble, better bed).
Happy with the unit.
Here is a quick-and-dirty video of my 3 Z Stepper Belt Drive printer showing the ability to deal with a badly out of level bed:

@fcwilt Just wanted to post a quick update... I ditched the EZABL and put new BLT's in and haven't had a problem since. Prints are coming out beautiful and I haven't had to adjust the baby steps since the first MBL/ABL.
Thanks again for all the insight and help!

I love a happy ending.
I had doubts about the EZABL when I found out it was capacitive. Before you removed it did you ever try a very slow probing speed?
