I have a 1977 Evinrude 85HP thats not getting spark on one side. Looking at it from the prop side its the right bank. The power pack is a cdi electronics but it looks brand new and cdi said it was still under warranty. Ive switched coil wires on the power pack and the spark stays the same. So I guess the info I need to know is how do I test the timer base on this engine. If it shows its good then im going to send in the power pack under warranty , and if its bad then im going to replace it. Im pretty good around motors but this is my first boat engine. I have done research and from what ive found those are the 2 possible problem makers to make you lose a bank. Any and all help is appreciated and dont rag on me too hard lol.
And this is my first post but have been reading on this fourm for months!
