Default 0s 160 twin rpm question.

i have just aquired a os 160 fs twin and ran it today , the previous owner said it had alot of power and was wondering if the rpm readings i got today were about normal for a 3hrs used engine, running a 16-8 prop on new 10% fuel it turned 7200rpm, it seems alittle low to me but mabe this is a normal reading , also at a high idle it the right cly shut off once,it has the single style carb.im going to try new plugs this week,anyone have any thoughts. thanks craig

Here is a thread in the tach area. http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_22...tm.htm#2252380
I would check the valve clearances with the new plugs.
