It'll be fine bit if you are worried, bung 250ml of 2 stroke oil in a tank as well. It will help lubrication of the HP fuel pump.

Used to be able to get away with something like 40% petrol in diesel - but in the modern ones petrol kills the pumps and injectors.

£2 will probably give you the same effect as if you'd put redex in.

that's what we used to do in the old days in winter to stop the diesel from freezing but now it has additives.
