When I first start my tuck, I get alot of black smoke from the exhaust pipe. Checked the oil this morning and had a strong smell of gasoline.

Possible causes include a bad O2 sensor, excessive fuel pressure (bad fuel pressure regulator or plugged return line), leaky fuel injectors, dirty air filter or restricted air inlet, or a defective coolant sensor that prevents the engine management system from going into closed loop mode.
