As above really.

I realised my mistake quickly. I BRIMMED it with normal diesel, then stuck some diesel additive that mentions lubricating fuel pumps on the bottle into the tank too.

Reckon I got away with it? (Everything crossed)

Relax. It's a relatively low pressure rotary injection pump. No problem.

As others say no problem. VW diesels in seventies reccomended petrol as a winter additive to prevent waxing.

Add a half litre of two stroke oil to the tank and It'll be fine.
