Whats so bad about using ATF?
Cleans injectors and Lubricates.
My brother used It when he drove truck (now hes a heavy duty mechanic trucking industry wasent paying enough), he was at the card lock some dude filled up 10 liters gas in his CTD and bro told him to throw in a jug of ATF the guy never had any problems.

Modern ATF averages about 60% additives and is designed not to burn thus leaving damaging ash deposits in your engine.
Most times the people now touting adding ATF are old timers or people who learned the practice from them.

I did the opposite the other day.
Took the wifes car to get gas for it and caught myself grabbing the diesel pump and getting it to the filler neck before I realized my mistake.

I think the nozzle is larger on the diesel pumps. My brother had a "really smart" girlfriend that tried to fill up her Blazer and she kept saying, "this dang thing won't go in, what am I doing wrong?" My brother went over and she had the diesel nozzle out and was trying to jam it into the filler neck. It wouldn't go in because it was fatter than the tank neck on the Blazer.
