New to mini moto, put unleaded petrol into 2 stroke with no mix :/

I recently got given a mini moto for free. Not knowing I had to mix the petrol with 2 stroke I just loaded the whole can into the tank. I got about 2-3 litres in there with no mix. Is this going to bust my engine or will I be able to run the tank dry and remember to mix next time? I can't measure how much petrol is in the tank so I can't do an accurate mix.

Please help

Do not start your bike because that will screw it up, drain the tank into a bottle, shake the bike or lean down on side to get ride of fuel in system, then measure how much is in the bottle of fuel

I have no way of draining the tank it's a bad chinese mini moto.
Would I be okay to pour some oil into the tank?
