Default coolant on the bearings...

Worth checking out, if you run an FE.
This claim should certainly be addressed to Evans to determine if the product actually causes this outcome. That also assumes that your cooling system did not cause the problem in the first place. i.e. the reason you'd use Evans primarily... which should avoid this issue in the first place... However, I certainly do not wish to freeze my engine up by using any product if a head gasket blows for no apparent reason! or improper installation perhaps. Murphy happens!
