----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]---- The onset of carb ice should be gradual, not sudden.
Don't expect a Stromberg mixture control to act like the one on a marvel. Strombergs are somewhat self compensating (scientific term) and, given the age and condition of most, either do nothing or do what you described. As to your real problem, it's a good one. I guess the first place I'd look is an intermittent fuel delivery problem. Carb heat reduces the engine's need for fuel, and may carry it long enough to recover. Look for possible blockages in the fuel system, vent system, and sticking float in the carb. Good luck and let us know how you make out.
