Another alternative is just do the 8000 mile service "early". There is nothing that says you have to do it exactly at 8000 miles. Conversely, you could wait till after your trip to do it. Either way, your dealer will perform the valve check and be glad to take your money. Obviously, you can check you valves ANYTIME you want, but probably it is better to do it sooner than later for greater peace of mind.
