You have put the triggerwheel 180 degrees out, but don't worry it won't effect anything and will function as normally the way you have set it up.

If you wanted the correct coil pack posts to match the correct cylinders you can simply swap coil a and coil b outputs of the edis to the coil pack. This would be the simpliest way to correct it.

Hope this helps

I've found an anomoly with some of the coil packs fitted to Ford cars in the UK.
2001my Focus with Zetec engine has the coil pack cylinder notation reverse to 2001my Mondeo with Duratec engine. to make the Focus coilpack run on the Mondeo I had to connect Plug leads 1&3 to the coil posts 2&4 etc
This could throw a few people.....
