Does adding 2 stroke oil or MM oil to the fuel help with carb icing?
Has anyone done any testing on this?

That would be real hard to measure.
Why would you think it might help?

Don't know. It just kind of popped into my head. In the back of my mind
I'm thinking  of going with EFI to avoid carb icing.

Speaking of carb icing and hot air to prevent it that could be 
part of the reason that both Ed and Jim's engines are developing
less HP than Tracy's.

Ed and Jim what is your carb icing set up like?
