Check the computer codes to see if there are any stored codes. It could be something as simple as a fuel filter or oxygen sensor or possibly a MAP sensor, EGR valve or possibly even burned valves.
yes,my vt is auto its fine wen its warm but first up in the morning it stalls two to three times before i can get going it happens most wen i change from reverse to drive,plz help
my 2000 gose in reverse but not drive
that sounds like your transsion you should have it looked at although you can drive it with out reverse for quite a while
temp senser or spark coil
I have a 1998 olds Intrigue and mine started doing that it was the crank shaft position sensor
I would say that the timing is off, if it has distributor and not coil packs try to turn the distibutor some.

Check the transmission fluid. From your description, it sounds like it is low.
Check the linkage between the shifter and the transfer case. If its ok, go in reverse for about half a block and then try to engage it. If that doesn't work, maybe you have a vacuum leak somewhere.

most likely its the tranny. could use a fluid and filter change or could be more serious.
