No sttart 93 convertible S model

Saabers.. A week ago, my clutch went on the 93. I was two blocks away from home, so I placed the car in first gear, and bucked it to drive it. I did this about ( caught by red lights)two or three times.
On the next attempt to buck, the car bucked violently, and died. It never started again. I assumed it was out of petrol since the fuel light was on. After filling up with a gallon, the car still would not fire. I opened the bonett, and the distributor cap was dangling! cracked in half two pieces.
Okay, I then replaced the cap, and rotot, and still the engine does not fire! I pulled the spark plug wire, and I see pulsing of spark. I loosened the banjo line, and fuel spurts out. I checked the plugs, they appeared black and I replaced them.
I even pulled the valve cover to check the timing chain/ tdc on flywheel, and it is spot on.
My questions Saabers...
What would cause the cap to completely explode in half?
What is the correct order of the spark plug wires?
How can I be sure if the injectors are opening?
Any ideas would be fantastic.....thanks
