I often lean if a carb heat check indicates ice. I was taught to leave carb heat on until touchdown, but later was told to go to cold air on very short final. I went back to hot air until on the ground after the engine almost stopped when I opened the throttle to turn 180 and backtrack. O200 in Jodel DR1050 in Scotland is an excellent ice-making combination.
