Owner's manual. Don't have one get one. Dealer, Salvage Yard, Google Search. Apply common sense: Trucks were still fairly utilitarian (simple and rugged) at this time. It may not have a hood release latch in the cab. If this is the case, walk to the front and (somewhere near the top center of the grill) find the hood release lever. Use it, and raise the hood. If there is a hood release latch inside, you will still have to release the safety latch under the hood (same area as described above) to open the hood. i have an 87 silverado and it has a pull lever under the dash then a lever under the hood i expect an 86 would be the same.... if you cant open the hood i would hate to see what ur ganna ask once you see whats under it
