im suffering from carb freeze when its 6deg c. i guess my intercooler must work very well, but apart from keeping check on my afr's as it starts to run lean, is there anyway to keep check on charge temps, and at what temp does it all start to freeze up??

i have this problem.i run a charge temp gauge set in the fresh air vent in center of dash .also have a sheet of perspecs which i can mount on the cooler in the winter to keep charge temps up
temp gauge lets me to keep an eye on charge temps when cover is on

may be a bit large but it's the sort of thing.
I got mine from courtney sport but it's not ideal as it.s a be voltage sensative and tends to cut out if you load the electircal system to much:)
