Petrol, most Diesel's are fairly slow to warm up and most efficent at full temperature, also depending on where you live, fuel is formuated differently for temperature changes throughout the year. So if you have summer fuel in your car, it might gell (congeal) in your fuel lines during the winter. Recent emission rules have complicated the pollution controls on Diesels.

It won't really hurt the engine.... unless you run it long term... Unfortunately you can't burn diesel well in a petrol engine.... It will smoke alot and miss and have weak power... best thing to do if it was accidental is to top it off with petrol... and when it is half tank... top it off again.... then change the fuel filter. Another idea is to add a double dose of octane booster.... it should help with the smoking and missing
