2010 Ford Bantam, revving problem, surges - HELP?

Well, i have not found any solution neither has my dealer. What we found that works though is disconecting the positive off the battery for 15mins and reconect. This sorts all problems out only temporarily. Its called a soft reset. I would like some feedback if any one could comment? Further Reading... More info on Soft Resets: This resets the car's ECU and clears any DTC's for the moment. Although the ECU will always keep record of DTCs (unless cleared by a diagnostics computer) and if the DTC is still applicable after the soft reset. It will illuminate the engine light again after the third key turn. This method doesn't fix the airbags light, i have a couple of diagnostics computers and so far it seems only dealers can reset the Airbags light. MrRocket12 out

I had a similar problem and took it to the agents and the told me it was the accelerator cable which they said they replaced it then it happened again I then found a very knowledgeable techie and he showed me in the engine there were 3 pieces of 10mm rubber pipes attached to a tpiece with one side going to the tappet cover there was a hole in one of them and when blocked engine stopped revving simple solution Brian

Hello I also have a problem with my bantam rocam. Every time I change the coil pack it runs well for 2 months and misfiring again starting at hole number 2. This is the third coil pack now. I bought new leads last year and plugs are new

Hi. I had the very same problem with my 2009 1.3 rocam and found it to be the so called lamda/throttle sensor. its located right opposite where the throttle cable hooks on the throttle housing.

If you fit a new coil pack to these ROCAM engines, you must use a genuine Ford Coil pack from the Ford dealer parts department. If you have the 2007 onwards Bantam with the oxygen sensor (Euro2 system), if you check for fault codes and see non, still clear the fault codes and let the engine idle for a while as the PCM system has to learn the new values.

Hi I have ford bantam with a rocam engine. The car start and idle gor a while when u want to accelerate it dies.what can the problem be

What year model is your Bantam ?

Guru97fk8 If it is not the throttle sensor try checking the plug located next to the water pipes feeding the car air heater for moist.

Hi, I have a 2011 1300 bantam, found a similar problem, doesn't accellerate then goes all of a sudden, replaced the TP Sensor and it was fine after that. Don't allow anyone one to clean the engine, even dealer when servicing done, sensor doesn't like water, not sealed well enough. I put a bead of sensor sealant on back, carefull not to get anything on the mechanism.

What is the TP sensor and where is it positioned?

The TP Sensor is the Throttle Position Sensor and is located on the Throttle Body.

Good day after I changed the TP sensor my Bantam 2002 model doesn't want to idle what can I do to solve this problem

Was the TPS Sensor at fault in the biggining ? Check the fault codes and check the resistance in the Thottle Position harness for the 5 volt Ref Voltage, the Signal and the earth.

Try checking your vacuum tube. surging and all problems seem to be associated with that. even a small hole will suck in air.

Good day guys I have a 2007 rocam xle recently when I start it misfires and looses revvs and when in motion sometimes it looses revvs on second gear we checked plugged seemed fine I tried pouring injector cleaner and still you can tell that something is wrong .... please any advice

Hi I'm having a 1.3 rocam it does start idling, it doesn't accelerate?

Check the spark plug gaps. The Pre-2007 Bantam the gap is 1.00mm and the Euro 2 2007 onwards the gap is 1.3mm. Check the coil as it might be cracked. Check the Spark plug leads.

Where is the Oxygen sensor for a Ford rocam 2006 model located?

The 2006 Rocam does not have an Oxygen sensor. Only from late 2007 known as the Euro 2 system has one. The Euro Euro 1 System has what is called an open loop system.

How do I solve the problem of a rocam, it's like it's not getting enough air then starts reving high and low like it's losing Power with the revs below 1.

Howzit bro I got a 2010 rocam bantam started burned put a new one after dat she swings and starts when's she wants too put cransensor nd cransensor

Try n replace the rev cable n see wat hppns

Hi. I just want to find out two things. My 2011 1.3 xl rev's at a speed of 120km/h goes to 4000rpm. Is this normal ond the other thing. The vehicle uses alot of petrol. Will changing from the original 13 inch to 15 inch help with fuel consumption.

Is the clutch Slipping ? If you sellect top gear, rev the engine and releacethe clutch, does the engine cut out ?

Can u help me with this please

Have you had your computer box up graded from a 1300 to a 1600.? This needs to be done.

Hi all, I have a similar problem, bantam is a 2014 ROCAM, 200k on the clock. Idiles fine, but when I accelrate it looses power or seems to be missing. Also only happens now and then. Also the revs go up and down sometimes at a robot. Seems when the revs go up and down, the misfiring does not happen. When the revs are consistant, the misfire/power loss happens. Any help. Please......

Also no fault codes. Should I try coil pack first?

Have you got the correct Computer box for your Bantam. 2013/4 should have a spark plug gap of 1.3mm. What is the charging rate and the amperage.

I have similar problems my car going up and down i change 1.3 to16
