After suffering jam after jam on my Prusa I3 Mk3 I finally realized the problem was located between the heat brake and the PTFE tube. After referring to Prusa Research
"How To Guide"
I should have beveled the bottom end of the replacement tube.

Parts needed; X-Acto #11 blade, two short 2.5 mm screws or equivalent and a little practice.

Works like a pencil sharpener.

Print instructions

Print bevel side down with tube hole vertical.
Remove from print bed, Install hardware, Use and Enjoy jam free printing.
