How can I fix my leaf blower?

I have a leaf blower that uses two gas/oil mixture. I lent it to someone and they used regular gas on it and now it will not start. Is there any way I can flush the gas out and get it running again or will I have to buy a new one?

When a 2 cycle engine is run on straight gas there is no lubrication to any of it's internal parts. That usually destroys the enigine in a matter of minutes. If the engine seems tight, it's most likely junked.
