1993 940 rough running then no start 900

Guys, posted about 1 1/2 months ago, my 940 was kickin out and I followed suggestions-replaced rpm sensor and fuel pump relay just to make sure.
Car then ran fine till yesterday- very cold 5 degrees, car started right up, warmed up and jump started my 240 w/it( don't know if this info is pertinent but offered it anyways).
Anyhow, drivin down the road,while accelerating, I feel it start to lose power-as in lagging back. About 4 miles down the highway, it just starts to run rough and dies. I push it w/my wife crabbing all the way and steering to a store another 200 yards. I try to restart, it is cranking but not catching.
I am going to check for spark then if thats o.k. spray some engine starting fluid in the throttle body.
Does anybody have some tips on what's gone out now on this old girl?
I'd appreciate any advice, you've all been so helpful in the past.
Thanks.
