$5 in gas if you have a 1/4 tank shouldn't be enough to really do anything unless it was straight water which sounds highly unlikely. Even if it was diesel it should still start and even run a little bit. 5th gear did a test where they put diesel into an almost empty tank and the car still started up, drove for a couple miles before misfiring and stuttering. They emptied out the diesel, put in normal gas and the car started up and was fine again.

Sounds like your no start issue might not be fuel related at all and your dealership is taking you for a ride...
