I have two TD .09's an hole is about 1/8" diameter. About half of what you have there. Your opening ids way big for suction. You could sleeve it down with Al. tubing. Do not cover holes for fuel. Make some kind of insert to reduce venturi. Or run a blsadder but needle valve may not work as threads are not fine enough. Sleeve it down and watch engine start easy. Best luck with it,Dan

Another option is get a stock Venturi.
The bore in the rotating barrel of my TD 09 RC carb measures 0.195. I know this is comparing apples to oranges but just another data point for what its worth.

All info is useful to me. The RC version is without SPI so I wonder if the opening for the carb is larger?

Thanks Al.

Both my TD.09 venturies are a smidge over 1/8",,,IE a 1/8"th drill bit is loose fit

Both my TD049s and a Medalion 051 are too tight for the 1/8"th bit and very loose on 3/32s"

That all said, for Ron's photo there is no way to gauge the venturi throat diameter

Ok I measured the venturi hole. As Fred said the hole is 1/8 or so loose fit on the drill bit. I compared this with an .09 I received tonight same thing with the 1/8 bit. I guess the pic is misleading.

Still waiting on the song Tom!
