Default help, clutch problem

today i was driving my car and it was fine then i stopped to get gas started it and pushed in the clutch and it wouldnt go into gear. it was like there was a wall stopping it. the clutch felt fine and it didnt grind or anything and after about 10 mins i just started it again tryed to put it in gear and it went. so i just drove back home. one weird thing was whenever i had my foot on the clutch and tryed to put it in gear the car would start rolling forward. alright so whats wrong?

I had a simalir issue when installing my new clutch hard to get in gear and would creep. Replace the master cylinder with a Tick master and fix the issues

well its not a new clutch i honestly dont know when it was changed it has a ls6 clutch in it but idk when it was installed. but i really dont have the money to buy a new clutch so i hope that all it is is the master cylinder. but it hasnt done it again i havent drove it but i started it up earlier. its my dd so i need it to work lol

If you have any mechanical skills you can put a master cylinder in.

Not sure, Just going from my experence. Myself installed my clutch 11inch monster and creep going into gear and practical wouldnt go into gear. I could pump the pedal about ten times and would go into gear. So I order a Tick master installed it and adjusted and smooth as butter now. I imagine the stock master leak internally and bypasses the seals inside. But thats just my experence.
