1.9's don't have a DPF. Phew.
Probably.
I advised 2 stroke oil when the tank still had a fair proportion of petrol in it, it helps the pumps/injectors cope with the reduced lubricity of the petrol/diesel mix .
As you have no DPF it will not be impacted.
If you have put the 2T oil in keep up with the topping up , this will
gradually reduce the mix .
With the 2T in it you may well find that it runs smoother and more quietly.
I did this to my 2008 1.3Ctdi Corsa when it was brand new. Put a full tank of petrol in, only realised when i drove half a mile down the road and broke down in a cloud of white smoke what i had done.
AA drained the tank refilled it with diesel and it has been fine ever since, dont know if i was just lucky not to do any damage.
Is it worth sticking in any more two stroke? I think that I'm currently running a 29% unleaded, 71% diesel mix 😯
Maybe. Think about what you're doing - just giving a bit more lubrication to the fuel. I have no idea in quantitive terms how much wear a pump will experience, how much lubricity is required, how much is provided by your fuel mix and how much is added by putting in 2t.
It's probably worth it. You could also top up with veg oil, that's good for lubricity afaik.
😆 Stop filling it with stuff that isn't diesel!!!
We need some comedy suggestions for IHN to stick in there. I'm going with Lucozade....it's been propping up the NHS for years....maybe it will work in a car too 😀
How much 2t did you put in ?
1 litre ? - do not put any more in - plenty
just keep topping up the diesel after every 50 miles or so until
you have run a full tank through .
Lucozade, are you nuts? Look at the damage it does to teeth, and they're well hard, never mind poxy bits of rubber that you get in engines
I'm going with milk. Or camomile lotion.

On that basis, how about toothpaste?
On that basis, how about toothpaste?
Or Listerine...
dariylea is good for teeth 😉
Dairylea would be tricky to get into the fuel tank. Toothpaste would also be tricky.
Listerine should work, plus it has alchol in it so it'll burn.
