Milky discharge coming from the prop area is usually from raw fuel/oil in the exhaust housing.   Look for a pin hole in the fuel pump diaphragm, a carb float level that is set too high, or an ignition issue that is causing inconsistent firing, or firing out of time.   

Could it be too rich of a mixture?    I am replacing the fuel pump as well.   Firestone is back to life. Started on first pull with the push button choke

The result of....high float level, hole in diaphragm, fouled plugs.....is "overly rich mixture"..
