Pulling wire through existing conduit

I've since sold that house so I have no way to check. But I'm about to try it again, so in the interest of getting my donuts How would I confirm it is BX as opposed to Greenfield ?

Can you see any paper on the inside? If not then it must be greenfield.

In that case it was (and is) definitely BX.

Then please let us know how it turns out

Well, it still works.

My wife and I just got done pulling 11ft of 14/3+ground through the old BX sheath from the attic to our bathroom, using the 2 old rubber/cotton insulated wires as a pull. Total time, less than an hour.

This was with one 90 degree bend up in the attic -- it runs along the floor, disappears under the attic floorboards, and goes down the wall to the switch.

Again, I wouldn't expect it to be as easy with a second turn, but I certainly would at least try before pulling out the sawzall and sledge !

You can donate to your local food pantry instead of sending the donuts.
