Mac AMP technical help

I just bought a MC2205 that was droped on the face. Face plate was broken and most of the front controls were bent. broken fuse holder in back. I cleaned the unit up, wired back in a fuse holder took off the front plate and knobs sprayed the unit down. THe unit powered up. I hooked up a ipod for an input and some old bozak's the right chanel is perfect the left channel is distorded above .02 watts. Both meters work. When I disconnect the speaker from that chanel it reads .02 watts. When I go past that with a load the amp clips.
Does anyone have sugestions. I want to order parts tomrrow. I'm almost wondering if one of the swiches or pots up front is broken and cuasing this problem. Or is it just bad output transistors or a bad Output cap. I have a multimeter and can change switches or pots.

ANy sudgestions.

Thanks
Bob
