read below...and get with your techies..please...
I need pics of the gasket (s) overlayed onto the block ...
1.6L hydraulic diesel head gasket on top of the non-hydraulic block....
and the: hydraulic head flipped upside down with the non-hydraulic (early) gasket
overlayed on that...purdy please....
I did notice that when I overlayed the two gaskets: (pics below) scroll down
...when hydraulic gasket is used on the non - hydraulic block there is one small
water hole in the block that lines up and partially intersects with the hole in the
hydraulic gasket directly below or underneath where the secondary oil drain
is...(now plugged)
I think that is where the water is coming from....?
This hydraulic gasket it creates a "void" in the sealing area because in that
circular area there is NO gasket material where the head and early block style meet.
So this "void"overlaps that water hole and goes to the outer edge of the block, so
the water follows that......
If we use the old style head gasket that "void" between the head and block is
filled by the head gasket, but additional water holes have to be punched in the
head gasket....if there are more water passages......whaddya say?
I appreciate your help...txs very much.....mike 305-731-3185
