I have a 1976 Elliganza and we took a short trip the other day and I noticed not much power and very low vacuum on the gauge. I stopped for the night after about 5 miles and found the stop somewhat easier and no roll after the brake released. Checking all wheels with my hand they all seemed hot and the drums and rotors could not be touched. (I did not have the laser temp gun) The next morning the brakes were fine and the vacuum was back up and once again had the roll at idle. Drove home with normal conditions. This situation did not return.

Any ideas as to what happened and what ... if anything ... could I do to prevent a future problem ??????
