Re: carb icing, what to do?

No offense taken Slomotion. As you point out, it must be outside the air cleaner and not in a large enough quantity to clog the air filter which is why it needs to be the stock type of air cleaner so the rice can be placed around the filter. It will be most effective at rest when the engine is cooling down. There is no need to remove moisture when the engine is running. It's the potential freezing of suspended moisture that is the issue. And this is by no means the preferred mod. I don't know enough about his engine specifics or his budget but I'm confident that a dollar's worth of rice will eliminate his headache until the proper engine mods can be made.
