1999 4cyc accord lx
Full oil to mark. Still has knocking noise when on the gas. Once after she warms up it will go away mostly. Timing seems low also. Below 500rpm marker. But runs fine not over heating.
Never owned a 4cyc before so covering all my basis before I loose money with putting her in the shop.
Could be exhaust leak at the head or knocking is by the oil fill cap on top. Not 100% sure yet.
Was going to do plug and wire change for low idol but not sure on the knocking noise on how to fix it without putting it in the shop. ????
Any suggestions?

Valve adjustment possibly. An engine knock is an unmistakeable deep conk, conk, conk. Regular and gets worth as rpm increases.
Check harmonic balancer and accessory belt tensioner carefully. These can produce a knock.
good luck
