when you start in the morning runs rough sounds like a bucket of bolts. and when you take off from a light has no power dam near have to push it to get across the intersection. but then it will start to pick up slowly and pump out black smoke and I keep it floored and it like once you blow it out it takes off like a raped ape runs fine and its like that all day every day. and that's every light all day. I clean the egr was hoping you could point me in the right direction. thanks

It sounds like you have an overfueling situation. It could be an injector, a FICM, whatever the cause, get it hooked up to a computer to see what kind of codes your getting and get it fixed. If you run it when it's overfueling a cylinder, you run the risk of burning up a piston and you'll be calling us for a new engine.
