diesel fireblade

i managed to put £2 of diesel in my blade this morning, so i filled it up with petrol, and it seemed ok, 80 miles later, i filled it up again with petrol, and it still seems ok

i have done about 200 miles since putting it in


should i just leave it? will the diesel mix with the petrol and just smoke a bit?, or should i drain it and replace the feul filter,

yes, i am a tit

Oh dear!
that was a waste of £2...
if it was my bike I'd leave it. Not sure what a fuel injection bike would think to it though (if anything).
Go fill up with super unleaded and maybe even add a bit of redex or alike and I'd say you'd be fine.


BTW I would have complained to the petrol station for not colour coding the nozzles.

IIRC, colour coded nozzles are a legal requirement, so it's much more likely to have been an error by the user

Just leave it. A couple of litres won't do any harm.

Easy done innit?

Reckon you should be ok Hovy boy.

Borisel !

If you've got this far, it'll be OK.

Don't do it again!!!!!!!!!!

Run super unleaded from BP/Shell etc for the next few fill ups to clean out the injectors... all will be fine.

if you have done 200 miles most of it must have worked its way through by now i would have thought lucky escape by the sound of it usally deisel in a petrol engine = none starter but you get away with a bit of petrol in a deisel.
Did it have much affect while you was doing those 200 miles?

none.

the bike went just as well as normal, although it did smoke a bit
