   I've been given a 2000 1124cc Saxo by my Mum with a blown head gasket. The number on the engine starts with HFX and I've been told its either a TU1M+ or a TU1JP. Is there an easy way of finding out which it is, everything I've read suggests its a JP engine but I want to be sure before I order the wrong gasket!!
   
   Cheers.

   I would be sure ther head gaskets the same. I think the M+ and JP are to do with the type of fuel system and anti polution devices fitted. Some one please correct me here if I am wrong. check http://www.elwis.com/news/9844255.pdf, says the HFX is a tu1JP motor on there. Hope it helps
