People have used it in the Volvo lists I've been on. It works, if you have
an overheat situation (but not lost of coolant), the usual reason the
engine stops is insulation melting off the wires, and the engine hasn't
been damaged.

In an overheating engine, the usual problem is that the coolant starts
boiling at a hot spot, and because that spot isn't being effectively cooled
any more, it can get very hot, leading to warping or detonation. This stuff
doesn't boil at any reasonable temp, so, say, having a thermostat fail
closed, or your fan stop working, isn't an immediate disaster.

Or so I hear, I've not used it.
