Thanks Bill, that is some interesting information to consider.
The reason I select carb heat cold on late final is not damage to the engine but Rich Cut, and even then that is not a

It has a mutistrand center and I believe spiral wrap. Not sure of material type. Was hesitant to pull the center back because I think the friction may be too much to push it in place later, especially

I just got home. While I was gone it looks like we got 8-10 inches of snow followed by about 1/4 inch of ice and then the whole thing froze solid. I just spent an hour on the driveway and it isn't

So I fly at 27C alot and it's 80% humidity much of the time. That's a 20C dew point.
On the graph, I'm in the "Serious Icing" virtually all the time!

Re: Your Opinion
Updraft, downdraft, - it doesn’t matter. What matters is the relative humidity and air temperature, combined with the carburettors venturi effect and the LHE of the fuel, as below;

Re: Your Opinion
Good points, Bill. I wonder if the EZ’s are not more prone to icing due to the updraft cooling, which puts the coolest air in the bottom half of the cowl? Your thoughts?

Re: Cutting control cable
If the cable is the type that has no fitting on the end then fully withdraw the cable from the sheath that you are shortening. If not possible then try inserting a narrow section of feeler gage steel
