What happens when you mix gas and diesel together in cars?
JadeComeaugp6021
In small amounts diesel will not affect operation, but eventually as the mixture becomes more diesel than gas it will not burn in a gasoline car, and will damage a diesel vehicle.
If you have mixed more than 5% diesel with your gas you should probably drain and start over to avoid damage.
