It isn't the actual injectors that ice up but the fuel distributor manifold on top of the engine. I think that in the 1980 Model 421C they started to run an oil pipeline through this manifold and that cured the problem on that aircraft whenso modified. A lot of pilots don't read the POH about adding alcohol.
