After letting my 90RR sit out in the driveway under the sun for almost 3 years.  I started it up in one click with a couple of shots of starting fluid in the throttle body and drove it around the block. 
 
Everything was 'normal' before I let it sit years ago.  But now, other than the old musty smell, I noticed the engine sounds "clickityclackity", and also, all the service lights on the dash remain on.
 
I would appreciate any insight on what my vehicle is going through.  Perhaps it has to do with the old fuel in the tank?

I would drain out all the stail gas, replace the fuel filter, put in a tank of high octane gas along with 2 bottles of SeaFoam gas additive.
I would suggest you do a full engine flush to get the crap out of the crank case and repplce all of the other fluids, tranny, coolant, diffs, t/case, brake and power steering fluid. If you do all of that you will have a happy truck again.
