One of the cool things about diesels (at least the older models), are the fueling instructions…

aka, if you can’t get diesel fuel, you can use gasoline
if you can’t get gasoline you can use kerosene
if you can’t get kerosene you can use alcohol
etc.

(of course the recommendations are to drive more conservatively on the alternate fuels). 

Most of us, of course, won’t be driving in places were that is a concern.
