you have to replace the stupid throttle you can tell its a French design right away cause its at full throttle until you squeeze the lever the French seem to do everything backwards
my solex 4600 used to aggravate me all the time cause of that so i changed it to a twist throttle
if you never seen a solex carb just wait till you see it it is the weirdest carb you ever seen theres no float bowl no diaphram no adjustments at all 2 jets but doesnt really seem to do anything well both solex bikes i had ran better with out the air jet it has a main fuel line and a return fuel line that "puts unused fuel back into the tank" wtf
also they have a vacuum diaphram fuel pump thats kind of a pain at least with the old ones you have to clean them out a lot
solex are really weird engines but they are very reliable and when running well they are supposed to get almost 250 mpg
your prolly right about the Black n Roll i forgot thats not really a real velosolex those were actually sold by another company
you prolly wont ever seen one anyway cause who really wants to spend $1600 on a 19mph motorized bicycle for that much one could buy a nice tomos sprint that goes 35 and have $600 left over
