Help...my first SPG (88)

I just bought an 88 SPG and wanted some advice from you knowledgeable folks.
1)On my way back from picking up the car (90 miles away) the car just shut off at about mile 6. I tried starting but it would not start and eventually the battery died. I was stranded for the night and the next morning the car started right up...and has been going well ever since (Knock on wood). What might be the reason for something like that?
2)The speedometer races for ahead of the car. Meaning that it would show 90MPH when I'm going about 35. Can this be fixed or do I need a new speedometer?
3)The steering rack leaks only when the car is on and the more I drive the faster it leaks. How do I fix this? Could this be a hose? If I need to replace the rack, how difficult is it and about how much they cost?
I currently own an 84t and I'm pretty handy but the car look different under the hood. Any help would be appreciated.
