This factory service and repair manual for the 1982 Ford LNT8000 covers a short-conventional straight truck in Base trim with two V8 diesels: a turbocharged 9.1L (555 cu in) and a 10.4L (636 cu in). Both are V8s, but only the smaller one is turbocharged, so the specifications, torque values and diagnostics for the two are kept distinct in the manual, while the procedures for the cab and chassis are shared. One body style and one trim mean the engine is the only choice to confirm before starting work.
