Ok so I have come across a new issue that im not familiar with and want to get some expert opinions on it. Unfortunately there are no experts in my area so im forced to come here and ask you guys

I have a 91 Coupe

Recently my clutch pedal has started to grab right off the floor on occasions and sometimes ill be at a stop and have the pedal pushed in but i can feel that its still engaging and trying to move the car. Earlier today I came to a stop had the car in 1st waiting for the light and all the sudden it jumped forward and killed the engine. I had the clutch pedal all the way down when this happened. Other times the car drives just normal. I have checked the slave and all lines for leaks also the clutch master is fairly new and i see no leaks or any sign of damage. Just wanted to see if anyone here has an idea of what im facing. Also clutch and throw out bearing only have about 6k miles on them.

CLIFFS: Car still tries to move when in gear with clutch pedal pressed all the way to the floor. No leaks, newish clutch.

Any help greatly appreciated Thanks guys

Found my problem i think. Someone had attempted to do the damper delete and kinked one of the lines trying to bend it. Its not broken but it will need to be replaced for sure. I will start there and bleed the whole system out and hopefully that will fix my issue. Thank you for the help
