i just replaced my clutch on my 1990 chevy cavalier and the problem i seem to be having is when the car is running the car will let the shifter move into gear but when the clutch pedal is pressed it will not let the shifter go into posistion and when the car is off and its in first gear and you push the clutch to start it it will take off what exactly would cause this problem

The clutch disc is not releasing, most likely the hydraulic slave cylinder has air in line and needs to be bled.
