Finally found the clutch problem.
Or my friend Mike found the problem.
A year ago when I swaped motor and transmission, I put a new clutch , throw 
out bearing and sleeve.
Since then, I had problems with the clutch engaging near the floor and 
problems shifting.
Turns out the new throwout bearing sleeve was at least a 1/2 inch too short. 
I didn't compare it to the old one when I installed it; just the put new 
throw out bearing on the new sleeve.
I don't know what its for, but its definately not for a TR6.
Needless to say I'am not a happy camper.
See picture of the one just taken out compared to an original on right.
