carb ice experience

Another trick to stick in your pilots bag of magic is to use the primer
knob if your engine gets starved for carb ice and stops. The primer
system on most carbureted engines bypasses the carb and goes directly
to the intake manifold. Your fuel schematic should show you that.
The problem with this is that carb ice blocks the flow of air into the engine.

Drink is the curse of the land. It makes you quarrel with your neighbor.
It makes you shoot at your landlord. And it makes you miss him.
