89 760 turbo breakdown 700

You won't get anything out of a car with a broken belt. If the belt jumped a tooth or 3, yeah maybe. Won't really run but it could cough a bit.

Definitely see if the cam is turning. Look in the oil cap while someone else cranks it. If not turning, you know where to start.

If its not the belt, try the fuel pump relay. Replace or resolder inside.

If that doesn't do it, look for a problem with the distributor- the connector at the bottom of it specifically. Not the coil wire, the plug with the spring clip that comes from the intake manifold side.

Replace the dist, if it's this. Not cheap but it's the only real solution.
