The carb and the tank and be all set dont think the tank and the deisel will do any damage but it may run funny at first.

disconnect the gas tank and empty it. blow compressed air through the fuel lines, take out the spark plug first. rinse out the tank with fresh gas, change the oil, reassemble, fill her up and mow.

Yes you can do it! You didn’t say if it’s a push or a rider, either way it’s simple! If you have a push mower first remove the air filter, tip the mower over (with a bucket under to catch the diesel) getting as much out as possable. Some engine oil will run out that’s why you removed the air filter to keep oil out of the element. Refill the tank with fresh gasoline. You may have to use a starting fluid (sparingly) to counteract the diesel in the carb, but it will start. run the tank dry and you should be over the crisis of diesel fuel. Oh don’t forget to replace the clean air filter!
