I don't think 6% gasoline mixed with diesel is going to be a problem, particularly with a bunch of diesel lubricant thrown in.

Is it an older mechanical injection engine or a modern, common rail system. I would be a little more worried about the latter but not much.

Diesel has a boiling range spec and that spec allows a certain amount of lighter gasoline type components in the fuel as long as it meets the lubricity and cetane spec. Just don't know how much or what would be the harm if it were exceeded. But like I say my gut is that it will be fine.

Let's see what Ski says.
