If you recently tuned up your cart at your house, who did you use, how much was simple tune up ( Mine is Yamaha 2014 ) and are you happy with the result?

Simple tune up kit.
Amazon.com
Buy quart of oil for 7 bucks. Yamaha EFI carts run pretty clean compared to older carburetor carts so spark plug last lot longer.
OK, that’s bare minimum on tune up and price. Naturally if you have to pay someone to come and do it which will include some safety checks anything close to 100 bucks is deal IMO. I do it cause I can still and cuts down boredom for me.
tune up plus and safety check may include inspection of: tires, drive belt, starter/generator belt, inspect Clean of primary clutch and one pump grease, inspect/grease secondary clutch, load test battery, check tires for wear/damage, rotate tires,
And probably change rear transaxle gear oil if older than 4 years? All that going to double Or more 100 plus simple tune up charge due to time and cost of gear oil which it takes 1 7/8s quarts. ( mine anyway).
When I do it I also clean engine bay, transaxle, frame, and gas pedal and brake cavity. Fine sand induced wear lot quicker if left dirty around moving parts. My cart 12 years old and still looks new other than normal wear and tear. I also change oil every 6 months just before summer and just before what Florida calls winter. My cart will probably outlast me?
