My son put about 3 gollons of diesel fuel in fuel tank' I drained fuel tank, and found about 50% water in the fuel. I refilled tank with gas and tried to start. Wont start. What next?

I would unhook the fuel line from the fuel rail and try and prime the pump until raw gasoline starts coming out of the fuel line.

Ensure that the fuel line is placed into a bucket to prevent spilling.
