No, that can't be any good... none of those bottles work unless they have MIRACLE in their name.

i have had experiance with this and many other "quick fix" soulutions like this, it does work but only if your a very easy driver, i mean very easy, 30 mph down to the shop and back anything more than that and it dosent tend to work for more than a few hundred miles, if your head gasket is gone i would strongly recommend just replacing it properly.
