>Thin it out by getting some more gas in the tank.

Jeff is correct. Fill your tank with fresh gas, run it until almost empty,
then use some gas treatment or fuel injector cleaner in your next tank (for
peace of mind).

Re: Some diesel in the gas - what to do?
 
A long time ago my dad would add a little petrol to his 1959 developed
indirect-injection Austin diesel when it got cold for easier starting. I
forget the proportions but I'm I think it was 1/2 pt per gallon. It beat
squirting Braddocks Engine Start up the aircleaner and running round to
start it. Nowadays, the petrol companies have different summer and winter
blends and direct injection diesels pretty well start first time, so its not
necessary and, as you say, a bad idea.
