You can add me to the camp that would dump the diesel pronto.

About a gallon out of seven, but I'd run it through myself. It'll clean your carbon out and loosen up your rings, though I don't know what effect it'll have on your cat.
I accidently put 4.1/2 litres of diesel in my Pan this has been topped off with V.Power so a full tank the bike seems to be running O.K. if a little smoky on acceleration .....Do you think I can get away with it until another top up?....
I hate it when someone agrees with me; now I have to rethink my position.A couple of things to consider......My conclusion based on the mix ratio you provided is that you would probably be safe to run it and keep topping it up with the highest octane gasoline you can find. I would suggest also No sustained highway use and Limit your riding to short rides for the next 300 miles.
That should keep the thread alive a while longer.now I have to rethink my position.

I would drain what I can (5 gallon) and fill it with high octane. Dilute the rest and use in the car when it needs refueling and top it with fresh gas.
My father did that when it happened to his snowmobile....
Siphon it out and burn it the mower. Why wouldn't you take it out?
I now have enough fuel for the mower for the next four years...
Wherever you take your used crank case oil should be able to dispose of the fuel also. I pit all hydrocarbon based products Ina 55 gallon drum and give it to a diesel shop down the street when it's full. They burn it in a waste oil furnace. Not sure if they are legal in the UK but it's worth a try too.
