It sounds like your lifters are stuck. Put a can of seafoam or trans fluid in the oil drive it 50 miles or so and change the oil. Use a good oil and see if this helps. If it works it don't hurt to do this everytime before an oil change. This keeps your engine very clean

Prognosis is really bad, hate to tell you. Ticking comes from the valve lifters, losing lubrication due to lack of pressure and running dry. At redlights, when revs are at idle, oil pressure drops a lot, and engine really suffers. Have the vehicle taken immediately to a shop for proper diagnose and to see if engine can still be saved. The loss of power comes from the valves not actuating properly. Hydraulic lifters need oil at a decent pressure to "charge" , and if not charged, they will stay compressed, ruining valve lifting operation.

You probably can but its not a good idea. You want to clean the mating surfaces and put silicone on them. You can unbolt the motor mounts from the frame and jack the motor up a few inches to get the clearance you need. Sometimes you need to loosen the center mount at the back of the transmission too.

If the flexplate (flywheel) is cracked, have someone replace it.

GM has a real bad wiper system on the sender in the tank. It usually wears through then the fuel guage doesn't work.

Your looking at about $400 plus parts.

I am guessing that it will start only for a second or two then stall out. Well for this you need to turn the ignition on and then try to start the engine. Then leave the ignition on while the security light flashes. It should then stay on solid after about 10 minutes. When light stays on solid then turn off ignition for about 20 seconds then try to start. It should start up. Hope this helps.

I would start with the O2 sensor as it can cause some of the other problems that you mentioned.
