Please Help ! Diesel fuel in tank

[phar2slo]

I agree with above you should have let it run until all the smoke had gone don't worry about the neighbours.

It might take 10 mins for it to burn off all the Diesel but might as well stuff one set of plugs burning it out as 2.

Yes. Was out of time, stupidly. Appointment. And out of knowledge. “A good man knows his limitations”.

Shld have come Straight Here, instead of a day on the Net :-/

Too late now to fire it up w/ a full tank of 98 ?

...yep, change those plugs...get rid of all the diesel as much as you can....nice clean good petrol in and away you go...it might smoke for a moment while it cleans its throat then the petrol will be too overpowering for the diesel fumes and the bike will be kicking its heels in the air...so will you!!

**** Right !!!

just my opinion
if it runs i would try to run that diesel out of those fuel rails. then if needed i would change the plugs.
why put new plugs in just to have them fouled out by the diesel fuel?

It DID run, twice. Now, unknown. Am avoiding that Go Button now.
Will buy a huge 450 CCA battery. And try once more. Then plugs ...

Will it hurt to leave it sit for a week or two now? Working for $ for battery...
