Sorry that this is under the wrong heading but I'm only following the leader.

In a video I recently watched, it was explained that the thick black smoke was the result of turbo lag from notching up the throttle too quickly. Once the turbo caught up, the black smoke reduced and ultimately ran clean... for an Alco.
