I have a 1992 Suzuki Carry van which at times is pulling over to the left. Front disks & pads have been checked and have just paid $80 for wheel alignment. Vehicle still pulls to left at times. Tyre pressures checked weekly, not sure where to go from here.

What we need to confirm is when the vehicles pulls left.
If it is only when the brakes are applied then you have a brake related problem.
If however, the drifting is apparent under normal driving conditions then you can discount the brakes and look for a wheel alignment related issue.
The tyres may be worth a look especially if you have had the alignment checked and believe all settings are within specification.
Try moving the front tyres to the rear to see if there is any change or rotate the fronts side to side.
There may be a wear pattern built into the tyre from a previous misalignment which is causing the pulling to one side.
Remember some road cambers will cause a vehicle to drift which is considered normal and unavoidable.
