Engine Knock 700 1990

A compression check might offer some clues. For instance, a sticking valve could cause both a rough idle and a slight (or maybe more than slight) knock in the top end.

You could also measure all the valve clearances. You might find one that is particularly great, indicating the valve is not fully closing.
