Looks like an issue with your carburetor running rich. First thing, if you have a choke make sure it is fully opening when the engine is at full operating temp. If the choke is not the problem, the carburetor is either not jetted properly or is not functioning properly. If you are not up to diagnosing the issue, bring it to someone who can diagnose and correct the issue. Driving the car while it is running excessively rich will damage the engine.
