Leave Carb Heat on. on take off with Most Planes and you will be in trouble. You will have substantiality reduced Power IF it's to be effective. There are set Performance Parameters for de- icing  carburettors in certified Planes. How SOME get around it I do not Know. When it's Injection equipped it's a lot less likely. We still see Incidents where it's most Likely Carb Icing. Of course the  evidence is gone afterwards.it Melts away. Nev

Less power on takeoff and also no filter at a time when you most need it!
