Abstract :In this article, oil obtained from vegetable was used to lubricate a single-cylinder 2-stroke gasoline engine as lubricating oil, and tribological function of the obtained oil was investigated. To investigate the tribological functions of the lubricating oils, a 2-stroke single-cylinder gasoline engine was used. For mineral oil and hazelnut oil, the test engine was run for 100 hours for each one and were used to lubricate in the test engine as lubricating oils. Samples were prepared for the aim of the determining the wear on the cylinder surface, and also EDS (Energy Dispersive Spectrograph) analysis were obtained. The results of the analyses showed that, the wear on the cylinder surface were increased in the studies using hazelnut oil and the C content of the cylinder sample increased compared to the study with mineral oil. Al element was detected in the cylinder sample in the hazelnut study, that the reason for this, is the transport of the Al element during the friction event in the piston material to the cylinder surface.Keywords : Cylinder, Wear, Lubrication, Nut oil
