White tractor blowing black smoke under strain

White LT1850 lawn tractor. When straining in deep grass it starts blowing black exhaust. When not straining it does not smoke. It also runs just a tad rough and at high rpms it runs a little rougher. I see that that air filter is ready for replacement and the oil looks pretty dark. I will replace them tomorrow. Should I do the plugs also? What else may it be?
Thanks.

Sounds like it's running rich. Change the air filter and see if that fixes it.

Oil smoke usually has a bluish tint to it and shows up at any speed.
