I found the way to stop carb icing is to add Methanol to the gas.  I had 
a generator with a continental and updraft carb that would ice up at 2 
in morning when the generator was loaded running the heat pump.   I 
added a 1/2 gallon of Methanol to 30 gallons of gas and watched the carb 
ice just melt..

Happy New Year to all
