Kirby,
can you do me a fovour? I am about tpo place an order with McMaster for 
some Viton O-rings. Since you have the hose laying in your garage, can 
you measure the size of the O-rings for that restrictor? I assume the 
hose has some kind of a screw-on connector in the middle, twhere the 
restrictor sits. I'd like to try either claning or completely removing 
the restrictor. Thank you very much!
