I use Avgas
Well, it probably wasn't vapour lock then. Anyway, sounds
as if you did a great job!

It was a cessna 150
The reason I ask is that certain model 172's are susceptible to
vapour lock above 5000' & the symptoms you had were identical
to what happened to me some years back (engine cut out at
7500' & restarted on its own after I'd decended to 3800').
Avgas or Mogas?

All I can say is what a trip I never had carburetor ice so bad
that
the
engine went out what a rush it was and the wife really enjoyed the
little
1
day vacation in paradise.
You don't say what plane you were in. Was it by any chance a
carbureted Cessna 172?
