Some of the headgasket holes wont line up with any passageways so it may have confused him when putting new one on. Therefore blocking OIL WAYS

Need to fit a capilery oil gauge were the sender screws in . As its mechanical it should/will work . You will know there is oil pressure or not. If it does not work then you have no oil pressure , so possible oil pump failure or filter/pick up strainer blockage .Rick...Member of 1st Gen club. ONE LIFE ... GET ONE !!Comment

I agree.This should be the first check that should be done.If you have oil pressure then the sender may be the wrong type.Originally posted by Vagrant No2

headgasket is on the right way
when i put the head on gasket was the right way because i checked and double checked it was right before i carried on when you undo the oil cap ontop of the engine when running there is oil getting up as your hand get wet with oil, but the gauge just dont work, is there a fuse some where for the oil gauge, thanks john.Comment

If it was registering before you fitted the new head you may have broken the wire or knocked it off in the process.(\__/)
