Petty in veg

So in summer i was running 100% veg no problems, started after around 10 seconds of turning over, then ran lumpy for 2 minutes or so, lots of white smoke when it fired,

Last week I was running 10% petrol to veg, took ages to start, when it fired it would run perfectly smooth and blast black smoke out the back,

Now im running 50% veg 50% diesel, and it takes as long as above to start (probs 20 seconds if it hasnt been driven for a day or two) and blows huge amounts of black smoke out when it does fire, again, more black smoke here but not as much as 1st start in the morning

then also, if i leave my car for a couple of hours after driving it, it still takes a good, 8 seconds or so to start, which seams weird as it should all be reasonably warm,

any suggestions? It seams to me that since i've put petrol in the tank its making it a bugger to start, but when it does it runs smooth ? Temps not down too low here yet either..

thanks hope nobody minds me jumping in on this thread.
