It's all been said but to be clear ANY modern diesel will run quite happily on a 10-15% petrol diesel mix with no issues or long term damage. Some will run a substantially higher ratio mix.

You might even find the engine improved afterwards due to the stronger cleaning properties of petrol....

Just ask any forecourt cashier, many drivers of commercial diesels, london taxi's, landrovers etc. frequently lob a few litres of unleaded in on top of a full tank of diesel.
