Odd that it's intermittent. Black smoke is too much fuel or not enough air. It would be very rare for the IP to overfuel intermittently and a nozzle spray issue should cause white smoke. The most likely cause would be an air restriction. Check air intake filter/piping/clamps/manifold for clear flow. Can you feel a misfire indicating an individual cylinder issue or does it seem to be all cylinders affected?
