Bad running after tune up, looking for order of plug wires from distributor? 200

I just finished a tuneup last night of:
• plugs
• wires
• cap/rotor
• air filter
• tightening of all belts.
• clean flametrap

After finishing up and starting the car it barely ran,really shaking
violently.( Car ran fine before tune-up)

I did unplug the AMM(but plugged it bad in) to get at the air filter and to clean the flame trap.

It seems as though something got switched around or bumped?
Looking for ideas and the correct sequence for plug wires from distributor
to plugs.
Could the belts being too tight cause this symptom?, They deflect about 3/16-1/4".

Thanks for any insight.
