Headlights flickering
Hi! I have a 1981 F100, lately when I've been driving at night I notice my headlights, dash lights, and charging light will flicker at the same time, and even sometimes my headlights will flash on and off by themselves, anyone ever have this problem? Any opinion is helpful! Thanks

You may have two problems. The headlight switch and it's connector are known to have problems overheating, making the lights go out, and a steady pulsing of the lights(and the whole electrical system) can be caused by the regulator case not being properly grounded. This is the regulator for the alternator.
