Why would you do that? It's not nearly as effective at cooling as the
recommended water-antifreeze mixture (it gets worse as the glycol
concentration increases). It also freezes at a relatively high
temperature (10°F/-12°C)!

It boils at a much higher temperature, but that means your engine can
get much hotter than it was designed to run.
