Your are lucky that you have a 94 with OBD readers, the 1996 keeps you guessing.

Noise? On an old car? Heck, just drive it for a while and think about replacing the worn out bushings when the weather gets nice. The bushings on the leading edge of the trailing arm on mine are all cracked and need to be replaced - rear end moans a lot over rough road.

Check the flex pipe for cracks. If an exhaust hanger broke, that will cause the flex pipe to eventually crack and be loud when you give it gas. Also check the power steering fluid level which can groan at low speeds - I added some stop leak to mine to quiet things a bit.

If your endlinks are even marginally loose when you grab one and shake it, they will need replacing.

So much to do...
