This factory service and repair manual for the 1982 Ford LN8000 covers three diesel V8s in a short-conventional straight truck sold in Base trim only: the turbocharged 9.1L (555 cu in), and the 10.4L (636 cu in) in both turbocharged and naturally aspirated form. The manual's procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostics treat the two 10.4L versions as separate engines, since the turbocharged one has its own requirements, and cover the single chassis they were fitted to.
