Icon2 Acceleration problem HELP!!!!

Okay i just did a ls swap into my 92 civic hatchback...okay well to start it off the TPS ( throttle positioning sensor) is out. But when i put the car in first gear and let out of the clutch it shoots down to about 3 or 400 rpms and stays there and wont accelerate. When i press in on the gas it doesnt do anything but sometimes about 10 seconds later it'll slowly start to go up but wont let me go anywhere i can go about 15 feet every time. Sometimes when i get it right i can start at about 2000 rpms and still hold the clutch about half way in and i can get it to go but that shouldnt happen. Anyone have any problems like this or know what to do let me know please

Thanks,
Dom.

Yeah, get that tps replaced and calibrated. Also check the throttle cable for binding.
