Yes, type 3s use the same Bowden tube as the beetles. This adjustment 
seldom changes, however. If you have one that is out of adjustment it 
probably means that you just replaced something back there, like the 
transmission or its mount, or that your Bowden tube has rusted out inside 
and is collapsing.

Don, how about editing the unnecessary quoted material out of your posts? It 
would make your comments easier to read and add less overhead to the 
archives, as well as reduce the bandwidth necessary to resend all that stuff 
to 450+ people around the world.  ;-)  Thanks!
