It maybe be reasonably easy to do for someone with mechanical skills, but outside of putting on springs or changing my exhaust - i leave anything else to someone who knows what they're doing

Maybe I am just uneducated in the "valve adjustment" and should do some research. To me it just seems like one of those things you should do every couple years to keep the motor in good shape and make sure you catch anything that might lead to trouble down the road.

off to the Under the Hood section to research....
Nothing wrong with being safe and doing some preventive maintenance! Actions like this is what helps our cars last a long time

Looks pretty easy, and the tools are cheap. I was going to have someone do it but do not forget you cannot just drive over and have someone do it. You really have to leave the car over night so it is cooled off. That is enough of a hassle that it is just easier to do it yourself. The thread I posted before has links to the two tools you need. I bought mine from Amazon. Experience the Zen of being in your engine and just not bolting on a shinning part. Man up.
