Is there a complete service manual for 1981 Ford F 150 in digital or print. Plan to rebuild one for a gift. Know nothing about cars. Changed a tire 16 years ago.
Re: Is there a complete service manual for 1981 Ford F...
Yes, there are both. You can find some good oones on ebay and you can find the manuals at any parts store. The paper manuals run less than $25. DVD's vary.

I have a 1981 F-150 that I bought new. The only fuel filters that I am aware of are downstream of the fuel pump inline and inline just before the carburetor there is a smaller one.
i do not know but give these websites a try www.alldatadiy.com and www.autozone.com if all fails stop by your local Ford dealership in the parts department and they be able to print you off the pictures and diagrams you will need wish you the best of luck Michigan Man.
2-3" is a lot of play really. I would do the gear box adjustment and see if you can at least half that. That can not be fun to drive that way. If it comes back to reasonable play easily I would not worry about it unless it goes back to loose after the adjustment. I would plan for a steering box replacement in the future if this fails to adjust back to spec. How long will yours last? If I told you then I might be lying. :)
Discount tire has a website for different tire sizes and how the sizes affect the speedometer reading. I changed my tires from a 60 to a 65 series and gained about 5% better mileage. Basically my speedo shows 70 and I am doing 74. So I get 4 free miles every 70 miles on the odometer. Too much change will rob you of power.
Could be many things from siple like a vacuum line pulled off to something expensive like the carb needing a rebuild. I would stay away he would have fixed it if it was something simple
What kind and size of tires did you get? Some tires have been noted to cause such a issue for the first 500 or so miles on them. Also could be suspension issue like shocks or sway bar....
