I finally got it to do the 3.5 turns. I took out the needles and cleaned up=
everything. Had some grunge in the screw area. Turns out the little screw=
on the side of the piston damper needs to be in and set on the flat side of=
the needle seat. With it in, the needle adjusts with the special tool. Wi=
th it out, it just spins and no adjustment happens. Like I said, it=E2=80=99=
s been a while since I worked on the zenith carbs. Good re learning experie=
nce. Running much better now! Thanks for everyone=E2=80=99s advice.
