Now if I let off of the clutch at idle and not in gear the gears will grind when I put it back into gear but it is fine after it is in gear. I do notice with the teasing spring which appears to be the small spring behind the throw out is missing except for one wrap where it appears on the parts list it should be 4-5 wraps around the drive shaft Do you think this could be the prob. To me this spring seems like it should push the throw out toward the clutch putting mor pressure on the clutch. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

It will if there isn't any grooves-wear spots where the throw out rides. Odds are the driveshaft needs replaced.
There are instructions in the tech section on rebuilding a clutch. Page one of the clutch rebuild has a picture of the driveshaft that has the wear in the throw out bearing rides.
