If you are planning on doing this endeavor yourself you will need a place to do your install. This can be tricky if you have no experience working on cars, but really it is not that bad if you follow the instructions laid out by the manufacturer of your vegetable oil conversion kit. You will also need common tools that one would use working on a car. I suggest screwdrivers, wrenches, sockets, and a possible hammer. The ability to raise your car off the ground and safely suspend it will greatly speed up your time under the car. Take a look at a jack and some sturdy jack stands.

When doing any type of task with a car it is vital that you have sufficient lighting. Not only for the speed that light will give you, but the safety. You never want to take anything for granted while doing a project like this. Safety first! I would also recommend safety glasses and some mechanic's gloves. You can pick these up at any auto parts store.

One way to cut down on your cost and parts that you might need to purchase is to ask a friend to help. If you have a friend that owns a garage they might let you borrow a bay and some tools which would make your life much easier.

Once you have the installation completed you will need vegetable oil for your fuel. Remember that when doing a project like this the most crucial element you need is patience. Take your time and go slow. Read the directions for the installation a few times before you even loosen your first screw. This might get frustrating for some of us out there, but this type of thing is good for everyone involved.

When you are done take the car out for a test drive and make sure there are no rattles. I would highly recommend taking it by a garage and letting them check it out just to make sure everything is in working order. This should not cost that much and is worth it for the piece of mind knowing that your car is safe, and now more efficient and environmentally friendly.
