Default

sounds normal to me
btw heres a good site with quick info
http://www.spark-plugs.co.uk/p...s.htm
if the engine is running smooth, and firing ok, its good, unless ur talking about like ALOT of brown/black carbon covering your plugs, then id say ur running rich but in your situation sounds fine

edit*: btw dont forget spark plug gaps!
