If it is free of water and does not have algae in it, then the fuel should be fine. You can send a sample off to be tested. I would also recommend treating it with a treatment that will kill algae and also running it through a water separator filter to make sure you remove any water. Some fuel additives can emulsify the water in the fuel also, so it is carried through the fuel system and burned off with the fuel without settling out in the vehicle's fuel system and casing damage.

How long will a diesel motor run on unleaded?

Short answer? It won't! Not even for a little while. Long answer... If you screw up and accidentally pour some unleaded into a fuel tank that is partially filled with diesel, it MIGHT run... IF you haven't diluted the diesel fuel too much. Back in the old days, truckers would sometimes mix a little gasoline into their diesel fuel in the winter to help prevent low-temperature gelling. These days, diesel fuel is winterized seasonally, and most diesel trucks and cars come with fuel system heaters to prevent gelling anyway.
