Hello Gary,

You do not need to configure PPP encapsulation.
The default HDLC encapsulation will work fine.
The configuration command:

serial  0
encapsulation hdlc

will return you to the default.

You should not lose the physical connection, but it will take a few seconds  
before IP is reconnected.
