Hi lo,

Here is some information on my site about converting cars, I suggest you purchase a conversion kit:

Most of the conversion kits available will entail you installing what is basically a second fuel system in to your car. In these kits you will be provided with a separate SVO tank and hoses, a heating system in side the tank or way that is on the way to the engine, a device which enables you to route radiator heat in the car to the new system and way in which you can switch between diesel and SVO. Normally when the car starts up initially it will diesel (or biodiesel) from the original fuel tank then when the engine and the SVO have both been heated for a sufficient amount of time you can flip a switch and thus the fuel when the start to be delivered from the SVO tank rather than the fuel in the cars original tank. It is important to remember that you need to reverse this process so that when the car comes to a stop there is diesel in the tank and the fuel lines, rather than the SVO which turns gooey once cooled.

However if you wish to use waste vegetable oil in a converted biodiesel engine then you must first filter it to prevent the fuel lines from becoming clogged. The best way to do this is to filter it more than once through a succession of smaller mesh filters. These filters are readily available in all different sizes at most auto supply stores.

All the best.

go to a car shop. you must have a diesel motor in your car first. after that you go to a shop and ask them. Following that you must have enough vegetable oil. Once you have that new diesel filter installed your car automatically cleans the oil that you put in. keep in mind that this does cost money.
