86 f150 heater problems

I am having issues with my heater, it heats up just fine but the heater just won't blow much air through the vents. What would cause this problem?

You'll likely get more help here in the 80-86 forum. Usual causes of lack of airflow are nests/debris in the blower inlet, and malfunctioning blend door. I have also seen heater cores and evaporators caked with mud, but that takes a really specific situation to happen.

I would suggest pulling the blower motor out and having a look see.
