Hey Ken,
My dashpot oil used to leak over time...until I replaced the O-rings on
the needle adjusting screws along with new needles in early May. I
haven't had to top off since.

 Was curious to know where and why the dash pot oil (20-50W) needs
occasional 
topping off on the ZS carbs on my 73-'6. 
 Approx. what should the distance be between the bottom of the filler
cap and 
the top of the carb housing when full?

 What is considered to be 'excessive consumption' of dash pot oil?

 Your kind replies are always appreciated
