to start check the free play in the clutch pedal should be around 1/2 " to 1", sitting that long the clutch might be hanging up on the main shaft set free play and then drive it, if things are sticky working the clutch might help free it up, the trans is a syncro so it shouldnt do that, also make sure you have the right weight trans oil, 90 w and its full up,
