It depends on what you mean by the wrong fuel. If it's diesel then you will have a large mess to try to clean up and it won't run, 2 stroke mixed gas will cause it to smoke a lot and may foul the spark plug, if it's an octane difference then you shouldn't notice to much of a performance difference, if it's E15 or higher then the engine will run extremely lean and will cause irreparable damage to the engine.

If that doesn't answer the question then please let me know with what exactly you mean by wrong fuel.

What could be the problem with a lawnmower if you are getting gas to the carburetor but not any further?

You carburetor needs cleaning out. This can happen when the lawnmower sets over the winter with fuel in the carb. Always put in a fuel stabilizer before storing the mower. I would even advise that you run the tank dry and run the carb completely dry of fuel before storing the mower. This will prevent the buildup of fuel deposits and varnish in the carb.
