That 4 barrel Solex is a junker. Even Solex couldn't make it work on a Benz engine, they were dogs from A to Z. Nothing desireable in any way, shape or form.

Many were convered to D-jet or K-Jet, vastly easier and much more reliable.

Fuel milage was terrible -- the small sedan got 12, the 450 sedan probably got worse milage than the 14 or so the 4.5L did.
