Answer 1

This site may help with your question.

As mentioned, you would need a diesel engine, but otherwise, you can produce the fuel at home.

Answer 2

a gallon of petrol and a lighter but dont stand to close!

Answer 3

Assuming you have a diesel, you could get a simple extra line put on fuel line, switch manually after warm up,switch back when stopping engine, and should not be a problem in warm weather. If you had a little mini tank rigged up under hood, you could just heat and add yourself, which would take you 10 or 20 miles no problem.

Answer 4

All you need is available now.

You need a separate tank, 6 way motorised valve or 2 solenoid valves, filter unit, various heaters, and a main heat exchanger plus a couple of thermostat switches. A few other switches/ relays/lights and that's about it.

You can buy off the shelf kits, but do your reading - and buy second hand to be cheaper.

Answer 5

Your car engine would need to be diesel. Gasoline engines will not work on these heavy oils. If it were diesel, then there are pre-heaters, special filters, etc to accomodate the vegetable oil fuel.
