tj107us said:it has three poles, and i have only two wires. does that help you a little bit?

Is it possible to enable it so that blank spaces can be accepted so we don't have to use periods as space fillers?
No! The variable capacitor is a single capacitor whose value is adjusted mechanically. It has two connections but one is duplicated so it mounts securely with 3 pins on a pcb.dknguyen said:Is the inside of the variable capacitor just like the inside of a resistive voltage divider, except that it has two capacitors intead of two resistors? That would explain the 3 leads
