Thats what I am thinking Spik555 or at least I hope it just old oil issue or qrt low and the service engine light are something easy. Bad break senser I hope but if I pull the abs fuse Im guesing will turn the ABS light on the dash off? what els will that tell me?

 

I had the same loud tick on my 96 and thought it was a bad cam lobe or lifter, well like Spike said the rocker shafts plug up really easily, I quickly realized that when I tore down the valvetrain that the oil holes in the rockers and the rocker shaft were plugged up with old oil deposits due to guess what? a plugged oil return from the shaft... long story short, pushrod cup on the no7 intake rocker was worn and hogged out from no lubrication.

 

Well worn out oil cant do it job very well, so you will have increased engine wear, increased engine noise, sludge build up and on and on.
As for pulling the ABS fuse, the light will stay on because with no power there is a problem with the ABS so the light stays on.
Wheel sensors for a DI are about $450 each. I just pulled my under hood fuse and left the light bulb in, I was going to remove it but decieded not to so that whoever drives it knows that there is not ABS, it is a warning light after all.

 

Spike always gets credit for my brilliance....
