My lawn mower is broken. Gasoline got into the oil "tank" accidentally. How can I fix it?
Question:
Answers:
My son did that for me once.
If the gasoline caused the engine to sieze due to lack of lubrication it could require some shop repair.
With a little luck & not much expense, drain the oil tank & refill w/ the proper oil.
Remove the spark plug & turn the engine w/ the starter cord & if stuck... by hand.
If it will turn easily , replace the plug with a fresh one & try starting normally.
Good luck.
Drain everything well and start with new clean oils and fuels etc. also a good time to check spark plugs, air filters and blades.
turn the lawn mower on to its side & let everything drain out leave it 4 a couple of hours so it dries up inside (on its side that is) then fill with oil and petrol and turn on
