generally you go from the inside to the outside. Then again some say removal of the tightening sequence. Not a good reply really. Id go from inside out personally

I'd go from outside working in which will more than likely be the opposite of the torquing up

a real duratec has the inlet at the front of the engine, guess when the focus rs came out that the duratec was the up to date engine.
