motor swap driving problems

i just put in a rebuilt motor, got it to start-up. idles, i can rev up during idle. when i let go of clutch, it car grabs and rolls, but i cant gas as the car to get it moving, if i let go of clutch too much car stalls, why cant i gas while clutching out?!?!!

thanks
eric.

another problem other than the fact that i cant gas the car while the clutch is out.

my temperature gauge doesnt work anymore, the car was on for about 10-15 mins and still the temp gauges sits at the bottom

elaborate on the other problem, when the clutch is out i can press teh gas peddle down but nothing happens, no change in rpm car wont move forward, nothing happens! but when im in neutral or clutch is down, and i press on teh gas peddle i am able to raise the rpm

so confused!

Is the throttle cable hooked onto the pedal rod?

It may have come loose in the foot well & snagged in the clutch pedal..
