Black Smoke

I have an 07 F-250 6.0 powerstroke. 136,000 Miles and never been in the shop, Never had any problems at all. But today I noticed it smoking alot ( Black Smoke ). It was due for an oil change anyway. So I got the fuel filters and Air filter chaged, but its still smoking. Now I noticed its Idling rough. Also when you turn on the key, the fuel filter makes noise alot longer than it did...Thanks in advance for your help...

does it smoke all the time, or only when you apply throttle? you might have a bad injector which can lead to serious problems if it's not addressed quickly..

most likely a leaking injector...it's really in your best interest to get it checked out ASAP...having it towed to a shop would be wise if you can't do it yourself..

pull your dipstick and check to see if you can smell fuel..i had a couple leak bad enough that almost 2 gallons of fuel ended up in the crankcase oil..
