I think the black smoke happend because I may have flooded it while I was trying to get it started. There isn't anymore black smoke coming from the exhaust. The fuel pump is a $22 mechanical fuel pump I got from AutoZone. It's the second one I put on. I had sediment in the old gas tank and I think it was tearing up the pumps.
