Its fine to run that crap in a older mechanical fuel injected diesel. Newer diesels have common rail fuel injection and the pressures they operate under make fuel quality extremely important. If your fuel causes an injector to stick open it will punch a hole right through the piston, or hydrolock the cylinder which will blow the block apart. I've seen crazy example of people running ATF (transmission fluid) as fuel but it was an older 7.3 ford diesel. Anything newer than 2000 you run a risk using anything but regular dino diesel.
