Default 1990 Mazda protege se 1.8 SOHC with 5 speed M (jerky 1'st gear engagement)

ISSUE:Jerks when going into 1'st gear and reverse
Hi everyone, iv'e been doing up my Mazda for a few months and have got it running beautifully. It only has 128.000 miles on it, and for some reason i cant get the clutch to engage properly, iv'e made sure its been properly bled and i think i need to adjust the pedal? i know that i need a new engine mount, the one by the left/ front of the engine, i haven't seen the clutch itself but the previous owner said it was hardly used after he replaced it and then parked it for many years. I flushed the transmission and put the specified gear oil in and checked it with the speedometer gear, i also re did the timing and belt and tension-er and put new water and oil pump gaskets, new CV axles and rebuilt the disk and drum brakes, and put new bushings all around, new tie-rods and some other stuff, would any of this contribute to the issue? Any info would be great! I cant seem to find much information specifically for my year only 2000's+ for some reason.
