OH No! you won't believe this, Need advice 200 1986

I am sitting here relaxing catching up on reading the latest posts, and my son calls. He is the primary driver of our 86 240. He is at a gas station and his friend just filled our 240 with DIESEl fuel!!!!!!!!!!!!! I screamed, I couldn't help it. The gas gauge was below a 1/4 so I guess that there is 13-14 gallons of diesel in there. Well, my son discovered the green nozzel in the gas tank and called me immediately. Fortunately, the car has not been started. So, I have some questions about what to do now? Is there a drain plug on the gas tank? Does the tank need to be removed and cleaned? Any and all advice will be appreciated. They pushed the car to a safe spot, but I will need to deal with this first thing in the morning.
