have a s13 blacktop. was changing somethings dealing with the turbo when noticed my oil feed fitting into the block was loose. and pulled on it and was easily able to come out. searched and came up with this solution, wanted to ask and make sure im in the right path to solve this problem.

where'd you order yours from? and what else did you buy or did you just thread it in? also does it matter if it has a restrictor or not??
