    It was naffed because someone added chain oil into the fuel mix instead of 2 stroke i believe... It hasnt done much the saw either which is a shame. What sort of price are we looking at for rehoning a cylinder if I can get the piston?

    Hi all, my first post on here! My makita dcs500 has a knackered piston (scored) and a repair centre that looked at it wants £280+ to fit a new cylinder kit. Ive priced the parts up from makita and the genuine kit is near on £200 and I can get a newer dcs5000 for a little over £300. So i was wondering if there are any after market cylinder kits available for it as i have seen a few on ebay but none to suit my saw? Any help appreciated.

     

    Cheers in advance
