Rheims 172J

Hi folks - Just an observation on f.injection - Years ago when
I switched from a 172 to a Rheims 172J Rocket I found it a great relief no longer having to bother with carb heating with an injection engine. Regarding engine warming I cannot recall ever having to be too bothered on this aspect on the occassions I may have flown for a few minutes with partially closed throttle - but then I may have been either just lucky, ignorant or plain stupid. However having enjoyed flying with fuel injection - I could never go back to an a/c having carb heating.
