Duncan
there was a post about drawing fuel out when the wrong fuel is put in. It used the bleed valve under the bonnet and attached a foot pump hose and fitting that would normally fit onto the schrader valve on the wheel, then use a small electric pump. Cannot find the post at present but it sounded very good in writing. MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange

Just take MrsDD & DiscoPuppy for a nice long wee run & back. You know if you try & get it out though the fuel lines you'll break something. For me, it just wouldn't be worth the risk.

I'll phone the HMRC and tell them you are running on red.
I bet they will find a way of extracting some
