It sounds flooded, although that doesn't explain why it would shutoff at 35mph. Did you verify that you had spark?

If it was flooded changing the spark plugs should have aired out the cylinders. Normially when your remove a spark plug on a flooded cylinder the plug will be wet with fuel, and you should get a strong oder of fuel. Charles

Check for spark. If no spark check for signal to the coil. If the coil is getting signal to spark, replace coil. If no signal to coil check the magnetic pick ups. if they are getting signal, next check the control module. Charles
