I would start by charging and load testing the battery. I don't know about Canada, but most parts strores in the U.S. will do that for free.

Valve adjustment is regular maintenance and should be done if it's been over 15,000 miles since it was done last. I have the special wrenches and do my own. I don't consider it to be particularly difficult, but it is a little time consuming.
