Default 400 carbs heating

Correct ....and why I and others do not use car fuel in our planes.
Aviation fuel does NOT have ethanol and has preservatives for long term
storage and minimizing carburettor icing. The use of fuel with ethanol has
caused many aircraft engine failures/ problems. In Canada the only gas
station fuel without ethanol is Shell, All others have 10 to 16% ethanol.
