It could be the clutch is dragging (not fully disengaging) and stalling the engine. Another possibility is misadjusted throttle plate (stop screw adjustment) or choke plate (too closed flooding engine). Check carbuerator closely for correct function.

good luck

I think what texashonda meant was that you can push pedal to the floor, but the clutch is not disengaging from the transmission.

It would be from a problem with the hydraulics of the clutch. Do you have any problems (grinding, etc) when you try to put the car into first gear?

I didn't understand what you meant by "also took foot off clutch and accelration to make it go by it self and then as soon as i started driving again the problem accured so "

If the car tries move forward from a stop in first gear, with the clutch pedal pushed down, and you are not giving it any gas, then I would suspect a problem with hydraulics. Either the clutch master or slave cylinder.
