I have used it and found it works well. Cleaned out debris and car runs cooler. Be sure to use the correct product. Don't use evapo rust but another product made by them specifically for the cooling system, believe it's called thermocure

I have used Evapo-Rust extensively with excellent results.
However, I have not used it on the coolant passages of an engine block or in a radiator. Have you flushed the cooling system? If so is it clean and does it flow well? The manual lists the radiator for the Six as having "Gravity flow new, 38 to 41 gallons per minute." Have you measured how hot it is when you say it "has a tendency to run hot in traffic and at idle."? The thermostat you put in was the correct 147 degree based on the part number. You haven't described it as hot enough to boil over.

I'm going to try the Thermocure here shortly (1954 Panama). I'm running warmer than I should be and my radiator has been professionally cleaned, new thermostat, etc. Block has been backflushed but nothing else. I'm curious to see what the Thermocure does.
Planning on running a Gano filter or something similar to pick up all the debris. And I also plan to clean the filter several times throughout the treatment.
