Yes, Jim....I have an .040 restrictor in the fitting at the beginning of the
line. I simply took the aluminum 1/4 NPT to -6AN adapter, and had it welded
closed. I then drilled the .040 hole through the adapter. I felt it would be
better to put the adapter just before the hose rather than after it, so that
if the hose should develop a leak, it will be after the restrictor. Thanks
for helping me find any possible problems. Paul Conner

Paul,
It looks like you have a rather oil large supply line
to the PSRU.
I hope you have a restrictor in that to prevent a
large volume of oil from flooding the redrive.
I believe the standard is a .040" restrictor.
