Hello,

Black smoke usually indicates that there is too much fuel being burnt in your engine's combustion chambers. here are a few possible causes for this rich condition, leaking fuel injectors, a bad fuel pressure regulator, shorted to power fuel pump that is being over driven, etc.. Here is a link for you to go to below explaining this condition in more detail:
