I have never heard of that one. . . Diesel fuel doesn't contain any extra octane value (if I am correct, diesel is measured by its cetane value), it doesn't actually explode unless highly compressed (which it wouldn't be in a Super M engine), so I wouldn't think that it would do anything.

I wouldn't think that Super M's would have trouble with pinging though either. Their compression ratio isn't that high that they would require premium gas. If it has pre-ignition, that would sound like a lean fuel-air mixture, moreso than an octane issue. I don't own a Super M though, so I am probably wrong.
