my car will only show an engine temp when it is idling and not moving once in motion it barely reads on the gauge, and in turn in cold weather wont produce enough heat to run warm air inside the car

It sounds like the thermostat is stuck open. REplace it and that should take care of the problem.

Let me know if it works for you.
