Hi dose any one know if a 0.106 needle jet is a smaller or larger hole than 0.107 in the Amal monablock carbe?

Hi Peter,
The number on the needle is the actual size of the hole through it,

 So, to go another step, a 107 is bigger than a 106, which in turn means 107 is richer than the 106. I had to go 105.
