Hey Jim, is the orifice in the #8 larger than the one in the #5.

From somewhere else -

"BIX jets and are designed primary for use with canister gas eg; Butane, ISO Butane and Butane / Propane mix and have a 1 BA thread, the number indicates the jet hole size, the following is the sizing I was given from the manufacturer about 10 years ago;   #5 = 0.008",  #8 = 010",  #12 = 0.012" and #16 = 0.0135".
