Default 01 EX: Rattling/Knocking Noise/Sound just above Idle

Hi,

My 01 EX has a rattling/knocking sound around 800 to 900 RPM which is a little over idle for me. This occurs all the time, even if I have my gear engaged.

I have been inquiring around and have learned/heard a few theories and they are:

1) Clearance between valves and pistons
2) heat shield on the catalytic converter and / or exhaust pipe
3) Alternator

Someone please give me some closure. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Alvint
