The heat range shouldn't affect whether it's running rich or not, that is purely on the carburetor. To some extent, the heat range will affect your cylinder head temperatures but it shouldn't be enough to affect your tune.
Heat ranges are important as you want the plug to get hot enough to "self-clean" but not so hot to cause "preignition".
If your plug is too cold, it will foul and fail in a fairly short time. If your plug is too hot, it can cause preignition which will drastically decrease power and has the potential to damage the motor.
