Don't listen to any of these answers, you have already said its black smoke so i don'y know why these people are giving you all the answers for bluse smoke problems. its either a problem with your fuel pump or injectors. If you have problems with starting up even when warm then its most likely the pump,if you do not then its probably just the injectors.

Three common things it could be. 1st Blown headgasket 2nd damaged cylinder boars/piston rings. 3rd worn valve stems. 2nd and 3rd would mean you need a new lump as it is more ecenomical than to repair damage. If you change your head gasket dont forget to check big ends ect..

What's the air filter like? Also burning oil will give you blue smoke.
