WARNING:
Under no circumstances should gasoline be mixed with diesel fuel (not even during winter). The high pressure pump is lubricated by diesel fuel. Immediate fuel system damage may occur causing replacement and flushing of the complete diesel fuel system. High pressure pump seizure will cause metal particles to spread through out the fuel circuit. All cdi fuel system components connected to the fuel circuit will have to be exchanged and the lines flushed.
