losing brake fluid

[Dan]

to go with my loss of main beams, no choke so i cant keep the engine running when its only even slightly cold my brake fluid resovoir has now developed a tendancy to become empty. cant see any obvious signs of a leak anywhere. is this a common problem or has anyone any ideas of where the best places to look are? oh, and its worse when i park it on a slight incline facing down if that helps?????

Check the clutch slave cylinder under the battery.

Most likely clutch slave cyl.

The cold idle prob is going to be the temp sender (there are normally 2, one for ECU one for dash) or the idle valve is stuck/****ed/blocked.

if the fluid leak isnt the clutch slave cyl then it will be one of your rear break cyls! thay have a tendancy to go!
