What carb is this for?
Can someone tell me what carb this is for? It is a Solex carb, but it is a little different from the Solex on my ponton. I was told that it might be the front carb of a 220Sb. Can someone verify that please?
See http://www.mbzponton.org/valueadded/maintenance/carb3/idle.htm Thanks.

Don't know for sure but it looks like the rear carb from a 220s. about 1960 or so.

It's not for a ponton 220S. I've got one of those and this carb is different. Maybe the fintail 220S?

It looks like a Solex 28/36, but am not sure. Am at work so I can't check on the 220 cars.

Thanks for checking - I appreciate it. I've got the carb in my hands, so I can easily provide any details you need. The carb only says "Solex" on it, no model number. It does have the following stamped in the carb though - 6267585

Hi Len. It looks like a 34PAITA Solex from a 220Sb. It has the lever for the fuel enrichment instead of a choke. I have a '62 220Sb with the same carb. The one in the picture appears to be a front carb, as it has the connection for the vaccum line. The carb in the picture also has secondaries.

Thanks Tom. Had a guy on the ponton list tell me the same thing, so that's what I'm going with.

But a suggestion: Google 34 PAITA and if it mlooks like the one in the photos, maybe with some explanation, then you might know with more certainty.
