She was getting ready to mow and had a bit of half a tank [approx. 4+ gallons] and trying to be helpful added somewhere around 1-2 gallons of gasoline to the tank, bringing it up to just below 3/4 of a tankful.
She then mowed for around 20- 30 minutes before she noticed that it was losing power and shut it down.
She said she also smelled either smoke, or something "like a hot engine that needed to be turned off" but didn't see any smoke, and when I got there I didn't smell anything out of the ordinary.
She didn't realize that she had used the wrong fuel until after I tried to restart it and it wouldn't start.
What is the best thing to do now??
I tried searching the forums, but without using quotes it just brought up every post that mentioned either gas or diesel, and when I used quotes, the search found nothing.
Thanks in advance!
