Its running rich, a tune can get rid of that.
As long as it is not very excessively rich it will cost you power but wont hurt anything, unles it is rich enough to wash out the cylinder walls.

Before you and go get a high dollar tune thinking it will cure it. There are many factors to what it can be including your driver mod. Just thought I would throw that in.
