IIRC the last "modern" naturally-aspirated IDI was the Peugeot DW8 which lasted until 2007 in Europe and IIRC a bit longer in Argentina, even though its distributor-type fuel pump already featured some electronic controls.

I would say the most problematic with blending in modern diesels is the direct injection, injectors, common rail and electric fuel pumps (all the stuff modern)

The most critical element is actually the particles filter.

while modern gas cars are great for blendning, with the modern electronic adjusting for the more fuel needed automatically, carburettors are way more difficult in that regard

I have seen some folks rejetting small-displacement motorcycle carburettors in order to run on both gasoline and ethanol, before Honda introduced EFI and flexfuel ability to the CG in 2009.
