Exclamation some little problems with my 3.0, HELP!!

problem #1
when i check the oil after i run it, the dipstick shows a normal amount of oil. if i wipe it, and put it back in, and dont run it, pull it back out, it shows nothing.

problem #2
the coolant resevoir was empty when i checked it, no fluid at all.
might be a problem, might not be. a friend told me whens the engines hot, the coolant gets sucked into the radiator. true or not true?

problem #3
theres a clicking noise, sometimes. doesnt matter if its cold or hot. sounds like the tappet. its a clicky sound that goes faster if the rpms are higher.
