Preheat oven to 350º. In a large bowl, cream together the margarine, vegetable oil, 1 cup white sugar and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. Mix in the pecans. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and roll each ball in remaining white sugar. Place the cookies 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. You can put closer, they do not spread much. Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden around the edges. You can roll these in granulated sugar or powdered sugar when cooled.
