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 diesel fire easily when you turn over the motor? And is the exhaust smokey from start up or does it get worse with the hotter the engine gets? Both would suggest a drop in compression.

I've got a fair amount of black smoke that dirties the stern and is pretty visable while motoring. Any thoughts on where to start?
