Check out the pinned Suicide Resource Compilation above. The CO megathread has a lot of good info, like time to unconsciousness/death at various concentrations. It's best to invest in a CO meter and do dry runs.

You don't light the coals in your tent/car/etc. You light it outside and let it burn until the smoke stops and it's just gray/glowing coals. Charcoal starters, the little handled cylindrical things, seem good. I think they're used to get all the coals started evenly and avoid one buried in the pile starting to smoke later than the others.

So, I did this 20 years ago but I put the BBQ in my office at home, sealed the vents. If I hadn't been found by my late partner it would have worked. They resuscitated me unfortunately, put me through 2 rounds of the hyperbaric chamber, I was in a coma for nearly a week, and all of the neurologists were telling my partner I'd be a vegetable if I survived it.
I can tell you the problem with doing that in your car--the heat from the BBQ will melt pretty much everything. I'm telling you that from experience, and that is why I switched from car to house. My dang dash board melted so there's that. You'd need a *very* large cargo area for a vehicle BBQ situation to work.
