Mixups happen, cost of fuel you don't want to throw it out. So you have about 30 gallons of 1/3 gas, 2/3 diesel to try to use in a late model diesel- don't know what kind of diesel pump but lets be safe and say it is NOT the old Mercedes/Bosch pattern with engine oil lube. Suggest useing the old no more than 10% gas in diesel for cold weather use standard, add a quart of 30/40 weight non-detergent oil, or 2stroke oil, or even filtered used engine oil, to each 10 gallons of the mixed fuel. 10 gallons of mixed to the 30 gallon tank would be about 10% gas mix. Use maybe 5 gallons of the mixed fuel to the tank for the next 6 fillups with 6 quarts of oil added to tank total and you should be safe and save the $100.00 worth of mixed fuel. RN

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
