Default Using diesel gas can for regular gas

Since I don't know who to ask I'll see if someone on here might know.

A neighbor is sell six 5-gallon plastic gas cans for $30. It's a good deal but I'm not sure if the diesel gas residue would be bad when filled with regular gas. Or would it be such a small amount it wouldn't do any harm to say my lawnmower, blower or even my bike.

Thoughts?

Don't worry about it. A little diesel is not going to harm your motors.

abit late. Good buy. No worries on the diesel residue. I mix my stuff with diesel all of the time if race gas is not available.
