Tune Up Issue by taffie

I have a 1995 Jimmy that was running beautiful until I recently had a complete tune up. The mechanic who tuned it up seems to have done something wrong. My truck now runs so rough at take off and idle. Can someone please tell me what do you think he done wrong. I've taken it back to him several times and I believe he has done nothing to fix the problem and now he's not answering my calls. I was told that the firing order is probably not correct. If this is correct what is the correct firing order.

My 99 Jimmy does the same thing only when my heat is on. A few years ago I was out of state and my alternator took a crap, had it replaced at a dealership, and that's when it started. If you find out why e-mail me at nljewell1104verizon.net. Thanks.
