My carbs appear to be Zenith, but the primary and secondary main jets on both carbs are stamped Solex. Were Solex parts ever used in Zenith 35/40's? If not, could this swap cause a serious problem? Also, the only reason I'm assuming that these are Zeniths is the name on the secondary vacuum housing - what else would I look for to tell the difference between the two carbs?
