No damage. It's just that modern spark ignition engines don't combust oil
very well.

Drain the diesel from the tank, refill with gas, then just keep cranking
until gasoline reachs the injectors. It would be a bit easier if the
vehicle in question didn't have a returnless system.

Yeah, if we're talking a "we serve" pump, or a station in New Jersey...

Or if a teenager borrowed used car (diesel is a few cents cheaper these
days....)

It seems that the current generation of teens is mechanically inept.

Depends where the gas price is. Around here, diesel is pretty constant. Gas
fluctuates up and down around the diesel price, so sometimes diesel is
actually more expensive.
