Default check engine light/engine shut off '82 ce

started the '82 for my sunday therapy ride.check engine light went out upon starting then came back on and the engine dropped dead.I never got out of my driveway.(lucky,huh)?I also heard this clicking noise that I earlier had thought was coming from my wheels.I think it's time for me to do some big time worrying.I do have gas in the tank.Is this possibly a few pump problem.I have not read the codes yet because i replaced the original radio.Someone sent the instructions for reading the codes thru the check engine light but my dumb #*@! hit the wrong key and lost the message.please resend.Any help you all can provide will be greatly appreciated.('82 ce)
