I think you fitted the head gasket on upside down! if you look at the head [in your pic]the oil comes up from the block next to the second bolt hole from the right.
Have a look at the gasket!

[Oldiebut goodie]

I looked at that also and I wasn't sure at first but then the marks are correct when zoomed in.

[dave friday]

Yes your right Oldie,the op asked how does the oil get to the head...and I was kinda wondering..

[clone123]

I will check it again but when we took it apart me and my brother was looking to make sure I had put it on the right way because I tried it on the other way and it was blocking that hole abit so we decided we had it right but I hope your right and that's all it is I can live with that looking stupid

Other advice may be given. Your engine is a 1,6td isn't it? The cylinder head advertised off ebay is for a normal aspirated engine but covers different engine codes.It said JR well then this means hydraulic buckets and not shimmed adjusted as is on your engine.This will not fit to your cast iron cylinder block and match to the oil galleries on your engine.This cylinder head advertised has a extra oil gallery which yours has not.Some one will come along to give there advice to confirm or not what I said. But I ran a hydraulic adjusted cam bucket engine and the engine code was JR so I am going by my own experience and no there are diffrences between shim adjusted buckets heads JX engine code and JR engine code with hydraulic adjusting buckets .

Well I looked again at the engine codes it will cover and it says JX & JR which is a surprise to me as I remember I ordered a head gasket was specific to only fit a JX or a other type to fit only a JR . Sorry if it sounds confusing hopefull some one might come along to give there advice

Cheers again yes it is a jk 1.6td And I knew there was something not right for that price.

[clone123]

Ok cheers I just message them to see what they say

[camper]

Can you confirm the engine code on your engine please.Actualy the price is good for the cylinder head advertised.Its a matter of getting some facts correct.

[clone123]

Can anybody give me a rough idea of what price I can expect to pay for a complete jx1.6td engine with all accessories but been stood in a shed for 2 year was running before removed ?????

[Plasticman]

about what you would pay for a blown non runner, i mean how do you know its not, unless seller says fit it and if your happy pay for it as opposed to paying for it and seeking redress after if not good. therein lies the dilemma
