I got a 1973 240z. Its been sitting around since the late 80's and rarely droven since then. Been fixed up a few times and driven a little. Its been about 6 yrs now since anyone has touched it and been just left out in the field. Its in overall good shape, not too much rust. Anyway one of the pullys won't move at all. I "think" its the air pump pully? Its the one on the opposite side of the alternator on the bottom. Its the only pully you can actually adjust by loosing bolts. When I decided to push the car into the garage and fix it up, it had no belts at all on there. I got all new belts and put them on there ( I think their correct? anyone know of a website with the diagram for belts?) Right now it doesn't start. But thats because of the battery we think. Not enough charge.
When we turn it over, the belt just moves around it and the pully doesn't move at all. Would that cause it not to start? If that is, any suggestions on how to get that moving?
