Okay, It's my Volvo again

The 93 940 Wagon my 17 year old daughter drives to school died on the driveway the day the 24" snow hit the north-east. I was away. When I came back the following Monday, it was too cold to do anything. We simply pushed it into the garage wating for the thaw, until this last weekend.
The 940 has a 8 valve B230F engine not unlike the 240 which has been around like forever. Tested spark. Only got sparks out of #1 and #2 wires but not #3 and #4. It tells me the coil is good since there are sparks. Switch #1 and #2 wires with #3 and #4 on the distributor cap. Same results. Sparks only occur on #1 and #2. So all wires are good.
Ordered a distributor cap and rotor from Sobstory. They came today. Unfortunately Jim has the rotor mixed up. It doesn't fit. I have to call him tomorrow to get a replacement. Used the new cap with the old rotor and tested sparks. Same result.
At this point I kind of suspect it is not the rotor nor the cap but something else. Would appreciate any insight on this.
