I have had this happen on my 98 Voyager. Just have a new key cut. This new key will sometimes cure the problem. The older keys get worn out and won't unlock the ignition. Try this before a much more expensive and time consuming change of the ignition.

could also be wrong type of oil but worst case is the big end bearings inside the engine have gotten to big to maintain oil pressure and as you guessed the oil pump could be worn out, i would try changing oil pump first.

you cant take them apart, you will need to replace the headlights, google 1998 plymouth voyager headlights.

drop the tank.

Check oil level. Make sure you're using the right weight oil. If those are good, you've either got a bad oil pressure sensor or pressure problems with the pump or worn engine bearings. Could be a sitcking pressure relief valve in the pump. But also could be a worn engine

probably needs a new oil pump

go to http://www.autozone.com/autozone/homePage.jsp and sign up, put in your vehicles info and click on repair guides, they have oil pan remove and replace but no guide for the oil pump but its located in the oil pan and usually held on with 2 bolts and a gasket inside the pan, Tough job probably need someone with mechanical experience to help with this.

Right beside the oil filter. Easily to change 10-15 min and cheap $15-20. Be sure to have extra rags to catch oil that will come out when you remove the unit.
