Measure the inside diameter on the engine side of the carb in milimeters.

That is almost true but the real measurement of the carb size is measured at the bore area next to the slide (it is the machined area). Most carbs will taper a little bigger at the engine side of the carb by about 1 to 1.5 mm bigger than the actual carb size. Exceptions would be smooth bore carbs and Chinese knock off's
