It's a pretty simple process, and it doesn't involve taking the engine apart. It would be good for you to become comfortable with the procedure, because you should at least check your valves every couple of oil changes. If your valves are too tight, they rob power and wear the valves faster. If they're too loose, they also rob power (and they're really noisy).

It sure beats paying someone to do it.
