Mend Craftsman 1000 Fuel Mower Plug

accidently put diesel fuel in my Craftsman 1000 riding lawn mower?

Accidently put diesel fuel in my Craftsman 1000 riding lawn mower and ran it for about 5 minutes. I drained the diesel from the tank and put in gasoline and a little Sea Foam. I changed the fuel filter and spark plug. I then tried to start it but it won't start at all. The mower worked great before it did this. Got any ideas?
