02 maxima high idle...

well after changing my spark plugs on my 2002 maxima, the car started idling a little higher than normal and surges a bit after a lil acceleration(very minimal) but feels fine going at high speeds and accelerating quickly.

what is the normal idle speed anyway? any help solutions? thanks guys

If you have any codes eg.p0507 and so on, get them cleared first. The idle relearn procedure should work after that.

Also make sure you're using the proper plugs. Go with NGK. Not sure of the model number, do a quick search.
