I've added the stuff you get when you buy a mower, a small bottle you add to 5l of fuel, it says on the bottle, to help starting and running your mower. I've put about a third of it into the tank (2l of fuel).
I'll try draining at the weekend.

What, and how much additive have you put in the fuel, i would drain out and put straight fuel in and try again
