I thought it was RR-LR-RF-LF, always starting farthest from the master cylinder?
It differs with ABS or non-ABS; DemonSVT's sequence is the Ford-specified correct one for ABS-equipped Contours.
I've had uneven brakes since I flushed the fluid while ago - sometimes the pedal is high and firm and sometimes I need to give a pump before I have good pedal pressure. I need to go back through the system and bleed them again when it gets a bit warmer, along with the clutch.
