1969 Evinrude 85 Hp no spark on one bank

[capt_mike]

Hi,
I have a 1969 Evinrude 85 Hp that was running great and then died as if it had run out of gas. After getting home I determined that the port side bank (looking at the motor from the rear) was not firing. What could cause this? And how do I fix it?

Thanks,
Mike

Bad set of points or distributor cap.
