I've been using my B7100 for 6 years with few problems... until this week. I tried to mow (60 inch belly mower) and I get little power and lots of black smoke.

If I leave the PTO off and raise the throttle higher than normal with no load I get white smoke and the engine seems to be missing a little.

I cleaned the air filter with my air compressor but it didn't help much (no extra filter). I haven't changed the oil yet this year, but usually change yearly.

I was thinking of changing the glow plugs as I've never done that.

Thoughts?
