Back to the lights pulsing. A lot of Ford cars had that problem around those years. I used to work as a tech in a Ford dealereship. I don't recall it on any trucks. But, car people complain a lot more. There was a TSB for it. Don't remember how it went now. It was a bad fix. It took care of the problem now, but it was going to cause problems later. I agree, check your grounds.

Default your battery light

The promblem is the the plug on the back of the alternater here is the NAPA part number CE
261. I had the same promblem with my 450 it drove me insaine change the plug no promblem. One other thing the plug comes with 3 wire's your truck may have only 2 just match the position and let her ride.

Good too see that the battery light was a simple promblem. As far a the pulley promblem with the belt my best guess is would probably be is that one of the pulleys is out of line just enough to cause the promblem. My best guess would be the balancer.
