the flap controls the amount of fuel being added sounds like it's not set up right but if you not familiar with them then you've no chance, the black smoke is over fueling and when you say lift it up how much is it sitting down by on it's own

if it seem to run fine with the flap push in abit try adjusting the mixture screw inbetween the air filter and the fuel distributor of the metrer unit, iv had a few with all sorts of problems all different aswell, if that works then it needs setting up, and i wouldn,t drive it till it's set up or you might have to take the engine back out hope this helps
