Exclamation Vacuum Problems again

This is getting very irritating, these vacuum problems I'm having.. I'll be driving normally and the transmission will start to shift erratically, which I kind of like, because it gets me up to speed quicker but the brake booster also goes out. I just had the past thread about long trips, but I'd hate to be driving on the freeway at 70 miles and hour and have traffic up ahead and my brake booster just doesn't want to work.

It's been happening off and on. Although very rarely, I'll have to stop the engine with the "stop" lever because it won't shut off. The transmission and brake booster issues are happening often now though. I just had the mechanic look at it when I got my valves adjusted but he said they're fine other than my door locks not working. How do I pin point this leak? (Is guessing it's a leak) Suggestions/Advice would be awesome! Thanks everyone!

get a mity vac. it might be that the pump its self is acting up and only working some of the time. the mity vac will let you pin point your problem.
