More than likely not, but the engine will not run correctly or will stop all together, and it for sure has no benefit whatsoever. In short, don't put the wrong fuel in your vehicle. If a significant amount of the wrong fuel does wind up in your tank, have the haul the bike to a repair shop lest you ruin the fuel pump or get stranded by the roadside.

What happens if you mix diesel with petrol in a diesel car?
You'll ruin the engine.
Does a petrol diesel mix in a diesel vehicle increase fuel economy?
No way ! Do not mix petrol with diesel it will ruin your diesel engine and be a very costly repair job.
Is it possible to put a petrol engine into a diesel car and if so what must be done?
you should lay cardboard down so that any fluid leaking from the petrol engine won't ruin your carpets... Of course you would open the trunk compartment and may have to remove the deck lid in order to put the engine into the vehicle...
What happens if petrol is put in a diesel car?
There are a few different views on what happens if petrol is put into a diesel car, ranging from "this is horrible and will ruin the engine" through "if diesel is put in a petrol engine, it will run but misfire" and "it does depend on the make and model of the car" to, most commonly "petrol will kill a diesel engine; don't start it, have it towed to your mechanic, and have him drain the tank and the fuel lines." Modern diesel engines use the diesel fuel as lubricant for the high pressure pump. The engine itself will run on petrol but it is only a short period of time before the pump is damaged. Petrol is a poor lubricant in comparison to diesel fuel. Generally when this happens the entire fuel system needs to be flushed to remove the petrol and the metal debris from the damaged high pressure pump, then the pump and any other damaged components need to be changed. Additional damage can also come from pre-detonation; diesel engines run far higher compression ratios than petrol engines, this is due to, in a simplified manner, diesel being less volatile than petrol. The effect is that the petrol/air mix may detonate 'early' i.e as the piston is rising during the compression phase, before the normal ignition and combustion phase. This essentially forces the piston to go back down early and attempts to turn the engine over in reverse. The huge additional forces generated can and almost certainly will be catastrophic for most internal components. Given the huge potential for damage to your car's engine, it might be annoying but it makes sense to have the car towed or transported to a garage, to have the tank drained and then for the system to be checked through by a mechanic.
Will it ruin the engine or any internal parts if diesel fuel is still mix in there?
nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
What would happen if diesel is let into a petrol engine or vice-versa?
I assume by gasoline that's the same as unleaded/petrol.... Well basically you will not do any serious damage to the engine itself, the car will stop working, quite possibly have some black smoke coming out the exhaust as the diesel works it way through, you will not be able to use the car until the entire fuel system has been drained out, so its a costly and frustrating mistake to make.
Can you use diesel engine oil in gas engine?
if you were running at 5:5 compression then maybe. otherwise, no. It will ruin your engine and clog it up Not quite true. Most modern passenger car diesels, require a light synthetic or semi-synthetic oil, usually around 5w-30. A lot of brands can be used safely in either petrol (gasoline) or diesel engines.
Can you use acetone in motorcycle4strok petrol?
no it will ruin any rubber fuel lines and make the engine ping....Bad idea
Is it true that biodiesel can ruin my engine?
Biodiesel most certainly does NOT ruin your engine. Most engine manufacturer in the world approves the use of biodiesel in their engines, unless of course your engine is not made to run on diesel fuel. Gasoline engines should not be ran on Biodiesel.Actually, if you don't change out your fuel pump, injectors, and fuel lines to accommodate the much thicker biodiesel fuel, it CAN ruin your engine.
Will a twisted derailleur ruin your bike?
It can
How do you bore out an exhaust on a 49cc pocket bike?
Answerjust take of the whole exhaust inlcluding the head which is the pipe leading to the engine, take that all of. your bike will be loud as maybe even to load but it will definently give your bike more power. DO NOT DO THIS!!!!! especially on a 2 stroke engine! this will bend your rods and possibly ruin your whole engine!!!!
Can you mix a little gas with desiel?
yes, you can mix it 50/50 :) Not in a modern 'common rail' diesel engine - mixing could ruin it.
