car has only 63k miles . when you start it in the mornings black smoke comes out the tail pipe, runs very rough until it is warm. once it is warm up runs like a new car. Is the the carbuerator too rich or what, I put new plugs,wires,rotor and still have the same problem. help me if you can.

Sounds like it may have a sticky or mis-adjusted choke. Try cleaning the choke assembly with carb cleaner then spray it with a little WD-40 to lube it all. If that doesnt help, you may need to take it to a shop to have it adjusted.
