oil in the gas tank
 

my friend accidentally put a mixture of gas and oil into his 94 eclipse! he mixed up his gas tanks and put the wrong one in. don't know what he was doing but how bad is the situation? what happens?

Wait... let me get this straight. He had a mixture of oil and gas in a seperate can... and added that to the tank. Anyways

Well it depends if he ran the car or not. If he didnt run the car then simply drain the tank. If he did run the car then just drain the system of fuel and pass clean fuel through the system. The car should be fine.
