My kid was too into his phone and grabbed the B20 pump handle instead of the Premium D2 handle. Put 14 gallons in. Pump clicked off and tank was only 3/4 full. Sent me txt of miles and receipt for fuelly. I said hey kid you put the wrong fuel in and only 3/4 of tank.

I said fill it the rest of the way with D2 Premium. He got another 2.75 gallons of that in the tank.

Should I just run the tank out or siphon it out and replace with D2 Premium. Car is close to due for oil change so I am thinking that we just run it out. Change the oil and go on with life.

what do you think?

Pretty sure in Illinois, B20 is the only option, so probably nothing to worry about.

One tank will not hurt it. Fuel dilution of the oil over time from regens is the issue with biodiesel. Just move on and keep driving.
