First thing to check for I feel , are vacuum leaks. Check all vacuum lines for being connected securely, no damage,cracks etc.
I use engine starter fluid in a aerosol can to detect leaks, spray around the vacuum lines, around intake and throttle body, ( if you here a change in how car is idling, while doing this, you have found your leak.)

1994 wrangler will not shift into gear when stopped but works just fine when moving.

No. The jeep moves when starting the engine as if the clutch isn't fully engaged, but only then. Sitting idle with the clutch depressed it is fine.

What is the switch for in the lower left side of the dash on my 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix, it's labeled, start in second gear

with switch on, the transmission will not shift into 1st gear--it will start in second and then shift to third, etc.. This is OK for normal driving, but not if you start on hills or want to accelerate quickly from a stop.

Goes to 4000 rpms to 5500 rpms before changing from 1st to 2nd g

Ford : back the truck up 10ft put truck in neutral and disengage four wheel low. (You can't drive in four wheel low cause its a pulling gear and you won't do over 3-5 mph.)
Nissan: start truck see if it idles normal. If so rev motor and check throttle for sticking and check EGR valve make sure its not stuck open or malfunctioning when you drive it..

4 cyl Engine starts and idles ok...give it throttle and it dies

I need to get a clear mental picture of what exactly is happening.

With this said, you stated that the car "runs fine" until warmed up.

Q: When you start the car when cold it idles fine?
Q: If you allow the car to idle until "fully" warmed does the car stall?
Q: As the car begins to warm up, Does the RPM fluctuate abnormally?
Q: Does the car Only stall when you press on the gas pedal or does it stall just sitting and idling in addition to pressing the gas pedal?
Q: If you can drive it while cold does the car stall during acceleration when warm or only at Stop Signs / Lights?
Q: If you wait 20min or so, can you start the car again?
Q: How many miles are on the car?
