I'll try to look at the service history later. In general the spark plug deposits are the key thing to look for in determining if the valve stem seals are shot. The usual complaint is a poor cold start; it'll do what's called a "false start" in the morning, on the second attempt it'll start right up. Occasionally the complaint is long cranking times to start.
