Since the car would crank over but not firing up, the moving of gear shifter to Neutral was just a freak coincidence in that the car started.
Crank shaft position sensor and fuel pump are two possible culprits.
I would let the car sit idling out in the hot sun on asphalt surface for a while with hood closed until everything is as hot as possible and then I would measure the resistance over pin 1 and 2 of the CKP sensor. If the resistance reading is much over suggested value, I would start by replacing that sensor.
The resistance is 860 Ohm at room temp and should not be more than 100-200 above that when hot.
A bad sensor can easily produce lots more than 1000 Ohm when hot but goes back down to normal when cold.
