You can't get a new cylinder*, its part of the block. A cylinder is just the round hole in the block, that contains the piston. Fuel, air, and spark are injected into the top of the cylinder which drives the piston down. So if you have a dead cylinder it means its not getting either Air, Fuel or spark.


*technically you can get a new cylinder but you have to replace the entire block.
