My factory manual lists a Solex 34 PICB for a 190c. Of course someone could have changed it, or that 34 PJCB listing could be a typo.
What does it say on your carb? There should be a make and model number cast/stamped somwhere on the side of the carb-housing.

Happy Motoring, Mark

Mark is right, the carb should have the model stamped into the body. After 40 years, who knows what kind of carb it has. I worked with a guy who put a VW beetle 30pict carb on his 190c, bought it new for $50.00(if that tells you how long ago it was), and said it worked great. His throttle shaft was worn out, and even after a kit it didn't run right.

PICB and PjCB are the same depending on the language from which the original reference/designation was made.

So ist es, meine Jungs
