weed eater trouble?

i have a ryobi brush cutter (weed eater) and i accidently put an entire container of 2 stroke oil in the weed eater gas tank instead of my fuel can and the weed eater wont run, any ideas on how to fix it?

Drain all the oil out and flush the tank with straight fresh gas. Then drain the gas out of the tank. Do the same with the fuel line. If it has a fuel filter, replace it. Clean the spark plug.
Take the air cleaner element out and put a couple drops of your mixed fuel directly into the carb opening. Use only a couple drops, otherwise you will flood the engine.
Fill the tank with your fuel mixture. Do not prime it, just start it up. It should start on the fuel you dropped into the carb. You many need to do this a few times before the carb clears all the oil out of itself. It'll probably smoke a lot until all the oil is cleared out. After that you should be ok.
