sluggish 300SD-TURBO DIESEL

i have just bought a 82 300sd turbo diesel that is very sluggish. when i put the pedal to the floor and the car eventually hits about 40mph and the motor gaining rpms it suddenly acts like it down shifts, the car slows and the motor again struggles to build rpms. it does emit smoke and of course smells terrible. what do i attack first to correct this? thanks to anyone that can help.
