Nothing in stock at this time I'm afraid. Keep an eye on Ebay!

There is a C5 cylinder on ebay now but it has the same problem as the one I am trying to replace. It appears to have missing plating around the exhaust ports. Experts on this board recommended replacing the one I have. Anyone interested in looking at the auction on ebay and letting me know their opinion will be appreciated.

You can also have yours rechromed, but it’s not cheap.

Go to ebay and type in homelite c5 click search the auctions will open scroll down 5 or six item and you will find it. It has pictures of the inside and one shows the carbon around the port which indicates missing platting. I am sorry but I don't know how to do a link. I am not tech savy.

In response to undee70ss, there is a thread replating cylinders by edju1958 that states cylinders with vertical transfer ports can not be replated due to not being able to safely hon the cylinder. If you know of a company that can, please let me know. thank you

That cylinder on ebay looks poor to me. It might be fine in person with just a stain at the port but I cannot tell what is really there by the photo. Personally, that picture does not impress me as a workable solution. You might message the vendor and ask for better pictures, many will be happy to provide, some will not. If you want to post a link, go to the page you want and copy the URL for it at the top of the page in your browser. Then just paste it here like this: www.ebay.com/itm/Homelite-C5-C-5-Chainsaw-Piston-and-Cylinder-and-Crankshaft-OEM/232709178749?hash=item362e8c457d:g:l7UAAOSwBPFatpweBe sure to get the whole link cuz long ones like this can go off the original address bar.
