Unhappy No Power or RPMs above 2000

This morning I started my M-B which had been setting for 3 days, temp was 24 deg. Engine started fine and idled perfectly. When pressing the accelerator, the engine would not accelerate or rev above 2000 rpm. It also smoked excessivly. Tried to drive the car and it would not go above 30 mph for about a mile. It then suddenly came to life, emitted a cloud of black smoke and has run fine ever since. It was like a switch had been turned on.
Vehicle had never done this before. ???????
1993 M-B 300D 2.5 Turbo
Thanks for the help, Lgriffi
