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
