It is running WAY too rich. There are a lot of things that can cause this from misfiring spark plugs to bad wires to an out of adjustment mixture screw, or dirty injectors. I would start with a full tune-up and replace everything if you don't know how old any of the parts are. Get the motor on an analyzer and try leaning out the mixture screw. It is even possible the cold start valve is leaking.
