Some love it and some don't. I like the suggestion that it doesn't boil up around the valve seats and will give it a go at some point. It's more popular in the US.

A friend uses it in his TR6 without any problems but some people think it causes more problems than it solves. Here's another thread about it: https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

I have used it and works well. It is not quite as effective as water but due to not boiling and the protection works well in a classic. I did have a small leek and that was super easy to find.

It has a lower heat transfer coefficient than water so that was enough for me to decide not to use it in my cars.
