Tune-Ups
From spark plugs to throttle adjustments — a proper tune-up means more power and fewer problems.
A proper tune-up restores your jet ski or boat to peak performance — more power, better fuel economy, smoother operation, and fewer breakdowns. If your engine is hard to start, runs rough, hesitates at throttle, or has lost its top-end speed, it's time for a tune-up from Bridgeport Ski Daddies.
Our tune-up service includes spark plug replacement, air filter inspection/replacement, throttle body cleaning, throttle cable adjustment, compression test, idle speed calibration, fuel injector inspection, and a general engine health assessment. For jet skis, we also check the wear ring, impeller condition, and jet pump performance.
Regular tune-ups prevent the small issues that turn into big repairs. A fouled spark plug can cause a cylinder misfire that damages your ignition coils. A dirty throttle body can cause erratic idle that puts stress on your engine mounts. Catching these early saves hundreds in downstream repairs.
We service all major 4-stroke brands: Sea-Doo, Yamaha WaveRunner, Kawasaki, Mercury outboard, and Yamaha outboard. Whether it's a Spark 60 or a Yamaha FX SVHO, we know the service intervals, specs, and common trouble spots for your specific machine.
Most tune-ups are completed in 1–2 hours at your location. Call (817) 915-3266 or request a quote online to schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need a tune-up?
If your engine is hard to start, runs rough, idles erratically, uses more fuel than normal, hesitates on throttle, or has lost top-end speed — it's tune-up time.
How often should I get a tune-up?
Most manufacturers recommend a tune-up every 50–100 hours or annually. If you ride frequently on Lake Bridgeport, an annual tune-up in spring is a great habit.
What's the difference between a tune-up and an oil change?
An oil change replaces engine oil and filter. A tune-up is more comprehensive — it includes spark plugs, air filter, throttle calibration, compression test, and a full engine health assessment. Think of a tune-up as a full physical, and an oil change as a blood test.
How much does a tune-up cost?
Tune-ups typically run $200–400 depending on the machine and what components need replacement. We provide a detailed quote before starting work.
