Default Black smoke no power help!!!

my buddy has a 97 4l cherokee its way down on power smokes when he steps of the feeder, oil smells of gas, verry hard on gas also its like its chocking out. I heard that it might be the temp sending unit retarding the timing telling the computer that the motor is cold thus flooding it out air way is clean not blocked. all the obvious has been checked. just wondering if anyone can help. Just a zj trying to help out a wj. thanks in advance guys!
