If it's just a burned valve, you probably won't do any additional damage by driving it home. Just be sure that's what it is - and not a stuck lifter or something along those lines - you could end up damaging the cam or the followers or who knows what. I'd say for the 5min it'll take, it's worth popping off the valve cover for a peek.
Whatever the case, it does sound like something in the head, so I'd absolutely pull it off and see what's what. Maybe a good time for a nice 2.1l upgrade. ;)
