How do you know the fuel pump is putting out enough fuel, maybe a filter is clogging up? Also have you checked the state of the rotor inside the distributor? May be you are not getting enough spark.

I could not find the leak, there was just fresh fluid under the car. I added more brake fluid and pumped the brakes but no fluid is leaking out now and the brakes seem to be acting normal, just needs to be bled. Im just waiting for the leak to happen again so I can find it.

I have a 79 5 speed and it is hard to shift into 2nd gear and also it would come out of 5th gear if you let off the accelerator. I was driving down the highway and the shifter was in 5th gear but the engine would just free rev like the clutch was disengaged. All the other gears are still the same and it doesnt grind or anything, what could be the problem and is it still OK to drive on?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

No, there was a puddle outside the vehicle, like I said, about the midsection, I will get the car lifted up this weekend and try to find the leak

Hey all just bought my 71 240 a few weeks ago and was driving around today when all of a sudden the brake pedal had no resistance until you got near the floor and it has hardley any power to them. Got home and there is a nice puddle on the drivers side of my car about mid section, beleive its brake fluid. Anyone know if that is where the proportioning valve is or have any idea what the prob could be, thanks for any help.
