1 question 1 problem with ball joints

First ill start with the question. For the past couple months my service engine light had begin to turn on. However once i get gas it seems to turn back off. Well tonight i was driving home and once again it turned on again, except this time the tank was only 1/2 empty (or full: depends on your outlook on life Anyway has anyone else experience something similar and might know what it could be.

In addition im going to be replacing a HUB on the front left side along with all the ball joints. How bad of a job is it. The reason im replacing the hub is because the ABS is going off at slow speeds. I read about cleaning it but i think the bearing is going as well. I have heard doing the ball joints are a bitch. Is there any way to check if they are really going bad before i start?
