Peter, Also check your air cleaner and replace it if it hasn’t had any attention recently. If the air filter is blocked, you’ll get incomplete combustion that will often cause a sooty exhaust. Or as others have suggested, the compression might be low and that could be an issue. Does the dies

Black smoke is an indication of over-fueling (which could be due to load - over propped/fouled bottom), poor injection spray pattern/worn pump, low compression, or an intake restriction or dirty air filter. Diesels need lots of air, especially at higher RPM, so a clean filter is important. -- Shaw
