If the engine is running ok and it just won't start moving, it's probably the transmission. Have you checked the fluid levels? If the fluid level is up, check to see if it has a burnt smell or is dark. ATF should be bright red. If it's brown the clutches could be slipping. If it's anything except low Transmission Fluid you probably need a transmission.
