What happens when you put Diesel Exhaust Fluid into the tank of a gasoline engine?

Considering that the fluid is an aqueous urea solution made with 32.5% high-purity urea and 67.5% deionized water it would not be a good idea to put it in the fuel tank of a gasoline engine. Nothing good would happen and lots of bad things will happen.
Adding to this one... at no point does DEF ever go through the engine in a diesel, either. Exhaust first goes through the outlet into the Diesel Particulate Filter. Then it exits the DPF, and goes through a crossover pipe into the DEF doser. It is at this point that the DEF is sprayed into the exhaust, and, from there, it goes through the SCR catalyst then into the atmosphere.
When we service or repair a DEF system, if you get any DEF on any tools with moving parts (such as ratchets), it must be washed off thoroughly right away, before it crystalizes, or else it will cause your tools to seize up. Now think about how many moving parts are in an engine.
