simply fill the car to the brim and then when it gets to half a tank do the same again, job done....

for a start put the question in the right section for cars.
My guess is you've knackered the engine by driving it on petrol. As far as I know you should never start up a diesel engine if you've put petrol in the tank, it has to be towed and drained and flushed out. Put it in the cars section and see what mechanics say.
