Well, if it's running too rich you can wash out the rings, and if it's running too lean you can burn an exhaust valve. Among other things. I would get it tuned as soon as you can to be on the safe side. A mail-order tune is easy and a good place to start, you can contact a few people;

I've had good luck with both of them, get on the phone and get it done!!
