The alcohol helps to melt the ice quick. But it's one of those things of don't use too much. A little goes a long way. I hate this kind of weather. My old van doesn't like to cold start in weather like this. So I have to prime the carb with starting fluid then hold the choke plate closed as I crank the engine. When it fires the neighbors know about it and if it backfires people a mile away know about it. With dual exhaust, echo chambers and homemade cherry-bombs a 318 can make a big window rattling boom! If anybody tells you a 318 is great for fuel economy call them a liar. It isn't.
