Hi:
Great stuff,.........for what its intended for. I've used it in many Lycoming-powered aircraft that I've owned to aleviate valve sticking issues with leaded fuels. Its still around,....
It has no place in these cars, either in the fuel or the oil.
Just use a good oil like Mobil 1, and run Techron or LubroMoly in the fuel from time to time. That will take care of fuel-related deposits on intake valves and injectors.

I use it religiously in the fuel of all my lawn equipment (add it right to the jug) and in older cars - i.e. my early model 911. I've never used it in newer vehicles because I've not wanted to risk messing w/ oxygen sensors, or gumming up injectors, etc...
But for the previously mentioned situations, it doesn't appear to have ever caused any harm in fifteen / twenty years of use.
