People who are trapped in house fires may suffer from smoke inhalation independent of receiving skin burns; however, the incidence of smoke inhalation increases with the percentage of total body surface area burned.
Vader receives massive burns to almost all of his remaining body and the heat and smoke would have been much more intense than in any house fire and would have effectively written off his lungs so I have no problem with him being stuck in the black suit after such a series of injuries.
But you forget that the reason smoke inhalation is such a serious problem to lungs is that it is in an enclosed space but the lava scene in in an open space so the smoke would never have affected him enough for the life-support suit.
His entire body is going up in flames, and his clothing and he is laying face down on beach of burning coals...even so the heat damage would have pretty much baked the inside of his lungs beyond repair... It's a miracle of the Force that he didn't die before Palpatine and Co got to him.
That still doesn't explain it. You need to read about this guy who was a soldier in the falklands war. This guy was in a ship, which was an enclosed space that was turned into a fireball and he doesn't have any breathing problems. Look at the scene where Anakin burns. there is a minimal amount of smoke and almost none rising from the coals. the flames are all heading skywards and because he is on his front it wouldn't have affected him enough to damage his lungs that bad.

well for one Yoda looks ridiculous jumping around like a damn flea and then becomes a frail old jedi once again after the fight. The whole saber fight between Yoda & Dooku is pathetic. The whole "It is obvious that this contest cannot be decided by our knowledge of the force... But by our skills with a lightsaber" speech is bad beyond bad. Again a line to explain something that doesn't need explaining.
