There should be a number on the base. That would help tremendously. Also measuring the bore will narrow things down and rules things out

Same would go for a piston, rings, and crank seals for same. Gotta get the WD60 going someday. May also be interested if it's a jug for a Homelite Original EZ or SW77.

Cal, I found this on AS: hope it helps. Jim
Part # 58174-a has been superceded by 58174-2 and a-69710 which are 2" bore cylinders. And used on models C-51, C-71, C-52 and C-72. That makes the engine either a 4.7 cu. in with a 1 1/2" stroke or a 4.9 cu. in. with a 1 9/16" stroke.
Next AS Post:
Not necessarily true...
The C91 also had the cylinder #58174-A even though it was suppost to be labeled #58174-A1. Really all Homelite C-Series saws had the #58174-A cylinder with different bore diameters being all that made them different. Now I'm sure when you ordered a replacement cylinder you needed the -A1 for the C9's and C91's so they would know which one to give you for the bigger bore, but as stated, they all came from the factory with #58174-A cylinders with the bigger bore on the C9's, C9G's, C91's and C91G's cylinders. I don't know why they didn't label them with the -A1 from the factory, but they didn't... I've got a C9 cylinder beside me right now with the #58174-A cylinder before anyone calls me crazy or wrong... I know the C-Series saws inside and out...
The main way to tell that it is truely a C91, since it's the only Homelite ever made with this feature and with this outer shelling is to look at the idle adjustment. If it's a C91 it will have an idle adjuster just inbetween the kill switch and the upper handle bar section. If it's any other saw, it won't have this adjuster...
Also the C91 had the over running bearing setup for the starter. The rewind will look fairly flat with this setup and if you look just underneath the air shroud fins you should notice a rather large diameter shaft going over the crank. Most XP's, I know of, had the regular "old style" starter dogs and a starter cup setup. The C91 didn't have the starter cup or any of this like the XP's...

I went through my IPLs and the part number for the C-9 was originally 58175. 58175 was superseded by 58174-1A. Casting numbers didn't always match perfectly with part numbers. In this case, I'd bet they used the same casting, 58174-A, for both the 2" and the 2 1/16" bores but finished them to different sizes and so they had different part numbers which is what would be on the shipping box. I can't see Homelite doing it any other way, there would be too many problems. My IPLs show 58174-1A for both the C-9 and the C-91.
