Missing belt on air compressor?
 
Hey guys. I just recently bought my first rx7 (1990 fc3s) and I'm in the process of getting it inspected for JCI. I got my car back and I was told that the missing belt on the air compressor pulley would fail my car. I looked more at my engine and I have no clue where the belt would go. I'm completely stumped on what the previous owner did. I have some photos of the engine. Has anyone had this issue before? Any help would be greatly appreciated. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...41cf073d6b.jpgMissing belt is the pulley on the left

The ribbed pulleys are not stock.
They are usually V belt pulleys.
One V belt pulley on the alternator along with a 2 belt pulley on the waterpump and main crank pulley.

THANK YOU. I've been searching this forum for answers and I haven't gotten a definitive one until now. Any real guidance on where I could order said parts?

ya your going to need a different main pulley, water pump pulley, and pulley for the alternator

best way you can is get your posts up and post a WTB, ebay, or if your lucky some boneyards around you will have the parts
