Car: 93' nissan 240sx

I have a 93 Nissan 240sx, with 90,000 miles on it. The car is in good shape and has had spark plugs, cap, rotor, plug wires all replaced 7 months ago. My car kinda bogs down for a split second when it starts and idles at 1000 rpm.You can smell all the gas not burning off and see a little cloud of black smoke comes out the tailpipe when i get on it and shift. And when it gets warm and i turn it off, it wont start. I checked the cap and rotor again and saw some white corrosion any tips please help.

Update: Okay now my car will not start at all... i checked the spark plugs and noticed that there was gass on the tip. Anyone has any troubleshooting tips that can save me a trip to get it diagnosed The car does still try to turn over and still is getting to much fuel

too much fuel on all cylinders or just one? if its just one its probably a leaky injector.

Nope not just one, all of them. I actually just tryed to start it and it tryed but made a kinda deep puh sound. Thats something it hasn't done before.
