Step 1 adjust valves.
While it is down adjusting valves, pull left side cover and check cam chain tensioner extension.
You will learn enough in that one internal excursion to define a lot of what your issue is (or was, if you were lucky)
AT 18,000 miles you are way up in the cam chain danger zone so don't delay the side cover check (valve adjust can be a part of that routine if you do it that way)
