sounds like internal trans leak ,fluid pressure bleeding down in trans,loss of fluid pressure means no go,check valve for torque convertor may also be bad,hopefully fluid has been checked ,does trans control unit store any codes?

check you dont have a split in the corrugated pipe from the maf to the swirl chamber (the big black plastic tank attached to the inlet manifold) or a leak into the intake somewhere, doesnt have to be a small vac tube.
Also you may have a sticking TB butterfly as my learned friend suggested.

Plenty of repair shops out there, someone could actually look at the car, that would help if you really wanted to get it fixed. However what I would do is get under the dash with a good light. There is a wiring bundle which connects all the doodads on the steering wheel and column to the wiring harness of the car. That bundle is connected to the car's wiring harness with a large plug in type male to female connector. Moving the wheel up and down may have dislodged that connector over the years, making the electrical connections hit or miss.
You may have to remove some cosmetic dash panels, look on youtube.com for a video of that. But find that connector and make sure both the parts are fully snapped together. If that does not do it then you are going to have to consider taking it to a shop where they do car electrical diagnosis. If you find the connector, and shoving it back together fixes the problem, put the steering wheel in one position and leave it there, do not let anyone else drive the car, ever, until you sell it or scrap it.
Hi sounds like the typical fuel pump or filter problem with these cars, best way to tell is take top fuel hose off on fuel filter under hood, turn key on ignition (not start) and fuel should pump out, if not its your pump, just beware of doing when engine is hot
