No. Once again the engine will start and run, and once again there may be very serious damage done very quickly. There is no problem in burning the oil, in fact it is a very good fuel, but getting it into the engine without destroying the engine management computer, fuel pump, diesel injectors, valves and valve seats, cylinder head and exhaust system is very much more difficult.
