Default free dyno run... alittle low?

so a local company had a free dyno day today and i got one pull. i was hoping she would atleast put down 300. it seemed like she broke up near the top end and was throwing alittle bit of black smoke out. definitely could smell unburnt fuel. hows the graph look to you guys.

also would one stage colder plugs cause the rich/unburnt fuel smell?

Yep something is going on with it.. those are even STD numbers.. when's the last time you did maintenance on it? I.e plugs/wires/o2 sensors/fuel filter/cleaned maf/new air filter?

with the fuel smell, guess that could be bad o2s.
