For a fact it will be fine

You would be surprised how much you can add to diesel with no issues

Any one who was a lorry driver over 20 years ago would know the adding petrol to the tank trick to keep things clean and running sweet

Bit smokey until you next fill up but then it's fine

People have also been adding it to biodiesel for years

Diesel's work on compression so you can get away with 50% of the tank petrol and 50% diesel.

Buggered if you've put diesel in a petrol as it won't work.

It actually works better than putting petrol into diesel from a video I watched on YouTube. Diesel engines need lubrication or something

Putting petrol in your diesel car may damage your fuel system if not dealt with properly. When you put petrol fuel in, the mix of petrol in diesel acts as a solvent, reducing lubrication and causing damage to the pump as the metal parts come into contact and rub together.
