Mend Craftsman 6.5 Mower Starting Spark

My 5 year old Craftsman 6.5 mower starting problem?

I have install the kit (new spark plug, new air filter, new oil)
It starts normally and stops immediately producing a lot of bluish smoke.
I pump the little rubber button near the spark plug and try again...Same result.
What would be the best solution?
