1993 Toyota Camry 4 cyl ? Miles

I believe my girlfriend put lawnmower gas mixed with oil in the tank when it ran out of gas.

After putting 6, 7 gallons of gas in, the car will run for about 20minutes, then losses power and will quit running altogether.

Is there any other way to get oil and water out of gas tank, besides dropping the tank? And if not how to clean tank out after it is dropped?

Hi Axsis,

There is a drain plug at bottom of tank for draining. If you get under the vehicle, you would notice it at bottom of tank.

After draining, topping up with gas should do the trick.
