this is what i would do if i had a dime bar moment.
fill it with diesel and run it as you are, top up with diesel as often as you can to dilute the remaining petrol.
it WILL be ok so dont worry, we have had loads like this, years ago petrol used to be added to diesel to stop thickening of the fuel, now a days with the addatives in it you dont neeed to.
the waorse case you may have is hard start from cold but you have only a small amount of pertrol, the main thing with your engine is to keep the pump/injecters lube. not enough petrol to harm that.
DONOT add any oil into the tank, that is utter bollox, engine oil had no properties to lube your fuel system, nor does it mix with fuel correctly.
keep your tank toppped up with diesel and dont worry mate

DITO - the correct advise is this one - do not put oil in - just keep on topping up with diesel - run to half a tank and top up again and again - don't worry it will be fine through a couple of tanks - Regards Tony Evdoka
