To adjust the idle speed on a 1993 Nissan Altima, follow these steps:

3. Start the engine and let it warm up to operating temperature.

4. Use a screwdriver to turn the idle speed adjustment screw clockwise to increase the idle speed or counterclockwise to decrease it.

5. Adjust the idle speed until it stabilizes at the desired RPM. The recommended idle speed for a 1993 Nissan Altima is 750 ± 50 RPM.

Note: If the idle speed adjustment screw does not have any effect, it may be necessary to clean the throttle body assembly or check for vacuum leaks.
