It sounded like carb ice problem to me.



If it were carb ice, the engine would not have restarted easily.

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.


As I recall, the OP said the engine was restarted after landing. The
warmth of the engine could have easily melted the ice during the final
approach and landing allowing a restart on the ground.
