Default distributor problem

hey hope someone can help me out here this thing is driving me nuts.Reved my car past 9000rpms the other day parked it at a buddys. Got in it to go home 3 mins down the road it died. come to find out the screw that holds the rotor on popped out and broke it in peices.Replaced it with my buddys and it started, sounded like it was missfireing and died.Ordered one from autozone put it in today and it does nothing..??Car has spark, fuel and compression.What could have happenned when that rotor broke?could my timing be off?

Are the wires installed in the wrong firing order?

Is spark bright white or weak orange or blue?

Better check the wires, see if they are in their right places... hope the car will start as usual once it is now installed.
