Crimson .............. is that the colour you are.

Firstly don't start or try to start the mower. You will need to drain out the oil/petrol from the engine and fill it to correct level with approriate engine oil.

Otherwise you may need to buy your friend a new mower.

If you haven't started it since you put the petrol in then there shouldn't be a problem, if it's not starting it could be for a completly different reason, you may not be doing something correctly when starting or it may be hard to start anyway. Just follow foamcutters advice and you should be OK.
