Default new cab owner with few issues already, please help

hey guys, i picked up today a 97 cab with 56k miles on the it, the car is in fantstic conditions but has its problems.
1- the fuel pump is very loud??!!!
2- sometimes, i noticed fuel odor
3- when i hit bumps , it sounds like i dont have a suspension at all??
4- the air bag light is on.

the car also has those big sport seats, but has the old steering wheel that i thought was changed in 9 with the new round one! can some one confirm that?

anyway, here is what i think of my problems and hopefully some of you can help me out
1- may be the fuel pump is just getting old
2- the fuem pump is may be causing the fuel odor
3- the shocks seem fine, so it may be some bushings, which ones are known to fail?? i noticed on the top of the front struts, there was no rubber?
5- if i disconnec the battery for a while, would it reset? or else

thanks in advance for your help, i will post few pictures when i get a chance to wash the car and wax it. itd actually a pearl white with black top and black interior. first impressions of the car, runs smooth with a really weird transmission, sometimes it makes sense, sometime it doesnt.
i have one more favor to ask, since i dont have the maintenance book, whats the schedules maintenance of these cars aside from oil changes??
thanks
