Answer
Janet,
This is not an engine used in any vehicles in the US, so I don't have specific information about your situation.  But in general, excessive black smoke usually means an the air to fuel ratio mixture is off, and that your engine is getting too much fuel.  You can have your mechanic check the fuel flow and make sure nothing is blocking the air intake flow.  Have your glow plugs checked and replaced if necessary.
Good luck!
