Help me! i have a engine belt problem
I just purchased a 82 camaro z28 and right now im unfimilar with the engine yet, and i noticed it was missing a couple belts. If anyone has belt layouts that would be a great help right now! until then im afraid of driving it because im unsure if one of the missing belts might hurt the engine. Thanks!!!!!

THEY'RE PROBABLY AC, SMOG PUMP' OR POWER STEERING BELTS MISSING. IF YOUR CRANK, ALT., AND WATER PUMP BELTS ARE ON, YOU SHOULD BE ALRIGHT.

Under the alternator is your smog pump.Right side top (veiwed from front)is your A/C compressor.Might hear some squeeling from belt slippage.Maybe a little popping from your smog pump not being connected.

Thanks for the help. Im going to look at it again later tonight and maybe get a repair manuel to see the layout of the belts, It looked like the previous owner might have made a mistake with the belts but im not sure yet. If anyone knows how many total belts there should be that would be a help to. Also if anyone has any websites with belt layouts that would be a help to.
Thanks

I believe it 4 belts.One is smog to water pump pulley back to smog.2nd is Alt to water pump to crank pulley & back to alt.3rd is A/C comp to power steering to crank up to water pump & back to A/C.4th is power steering to crank & back to power str.Thats how i remember it anyway.
