have you let the car warm up when parked before trying to put it in gear?
Check rotor and cap, timing. I've learned this the hard way, those things can totally screw with your car. By that I mean those thing caused problems that I (and quite a few other people) was leaning closer to a fuel issue rather than a spark issue.

if the maf is suspect just unplug it and drive around like that. it will throw a code, but the ecm just reverts to default fuel tables to run the engine. far from ideal, but it will support a lot more than 35 mph.
