Default weird clutch problem

i got in my gsr about an hour ago and my clutch pedal was stiff no play at all like always so i go to pick up my gf that was like 7 miles away. i notice about 1/3 of the clutch pedal had play so then i go back home and now a i cant even release the pedal an inch and it stalls what would make me lose my clutch like that? was it not releasing it?

sounds like a leak in the line ... you say everytime after you bleed it , its fine then acts up again after driving

Your sucking air into the system someplace, take out the bleeder screw and make sure the end of is is clean and free of dirt, then tighten all the fitting you can see.

You may need to rebuild the master, or the slave sometimes they suck air when you let you foot off the clutch, just a little at a time but enough to make you crazy.

Older corvettes use to have the same problem with there brake calipers, they would not leak but you would bleed the brakes and a half hour later they would have air in them again.

Good Luck
