Thanks to all for the good information on adjusting Z-S carbs.

I see the set screw that holds the needle from turning on some of the shop
drawings and am hoping that this is my problem, and that in fact the needles
aren't "Non-Adjustable" nor frozen.

My NEW QUESTION is :  If I get into the carb and find that indeed I do need
to loosen the set screw to adjust.  

SHOULD I - loosen screw, reasemble carb, adjust - then should I go back into
to tighten down the set screw again.  And if I do, don't I run the risk of
knocking it out of adjustment again??

Sorry for the goofy questions, but am trying to prepare myself for any
eventuality (My first venture into a carburator !!! :-)
