Default Cloudy gas????

When I took some pilot lessons, they had a knob for "carb
heat" which we ran heat, every day, all day. Between high
altitudes, and air flow, and all. Carbs have been known to
ice over. Cuts the air flow to the engine, and leads to less
than ideal flying conditions.

I called the gas station but they don't seem to know
anything.


If it was avgas, it would be rejected as possibly causing
carb. icing.


Water in the gas causes carburetor icing?
