First, welcome to the forums!

I'm sure other more knowledgeable people will chime in, but I am chasing down similar rich conditions. Here is where I am starting:

1. I installed an air/fuel ratio (AFR) gauge. This showed me that I was rich for the full range of operation, not just on boost or accelerating. I was getting black smoke on acceleration too.

2. I am checking my CIS fuel Pressures.

3. I also want to check my fuel pumps to make sure I am getting adequate fuel delivery.

4. Air leaks after the fuel metering plate.

5. I did also swap out the DME that controls the lamda system with a known good one, but this had no effect for me.

This is just where I am starting and like I said others will probably have better information and I'd follow their lead.
