Seems like like dumb question, but are you using high enough pressure fuel line, and the proper fuel line clamps instead of normal hose clamps?

Power loss at 140km/h

So I was driving down the highway today just cruisin' when all of a sudden my car lost almost all power and went from 140 to 110 almost instantly. So I pulled over, shut the car off for 5 min and it drove fine after.
Any ideas would be a great help

test results in, so when I push the clutch in I can see the part in the engine bay on the transmission go back to the normal position I'm losing pressure somewhere but there is no sign of any leaks in the clutch lines. Any idea of what could be the issue?
Thanks

sticky clutch

About a week ago my clutch pedel started sticking all the way down to the floor, only in 1st and reverse when accelerating, or if I hold the pedal down to long. I can still shift, I just have to kick up the pedal (PITA), I assume I have to get a clutch kit, but any ideas of a cheaper fix?
thanks
