I would not worry about 1 gallon in a full tank, I am sure they get more than that mixed in the transports from on load to the next.

Thanks guys, I didn't think it would be a problem. But I met a guy at the gas station after my screw up that said he burned up his motor after the same thing happened to him. I learned a valuble lesson today, I get gas at the same 2 or 3 gas stations all the time. Their diesel pump handles are all green. I went to a different station today and I was in a hurry. I grabbed the green handle and started pumping, then looked at the pump and saw REGULAR under the nozzle. OOPS! The diesel nozzle was white.

Na, you're good. Some guys up north use more than that in the winter...

Throw some power service silver in there. You're golden...
