DaweV6 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 it's this - This Zetec-Rocam is an 8-valve SOHC instead of 16-valve DOHC design and the block is made of iron instead of aluminum. Also, the camshaft is driven by a chain instead of a belt. As a result, this engine exhibits rougher behaviour, producing more vibration and noise. On the other hand, it has a superb torque output thanks to the addition of the Rocam (rollerfinger camshaft) feature. It is also a much smaller engine than the SE version, which allowed it to be installed in the Ford Ka, replacing the Endura-E which was considered underpowered and outdated. In 2003, the Zetec-Rocam engine was introduced in Europe, but labeled as Duratec 8v, for the SportKa and StreetKa models. Later a 1.3 L version was also released as an option for the standard model, but the European versions of the engine are produced in the South Africa plant. bloody crap tbh - from european point of view feels like they took all the bad bits from CVH and Endura and voila - new engine. But is very reliable, cheap and will run on 89 or 91 octane fuel all day long and that's not something You can say about Zetec E or S... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 will run on 89 or 91 octane fuel all day long and that's not something You can say about Zetec E or S... Why would a manufacturer release a vehicle with a calibration accomodating such a poor fuel in countries where such poor fuel is not commonly available?
