How do you adjust idle on 1998 ford escort?
You don't. The ECU controls the ISC (Idle Speed Control Motor) which adjusts the idle. If idle is out of control (too low or too high) try gently tapping the ISC with a small (0.5 pound) hammer or a large wrench while the engine is running. If tapping the ISC makes a change in idle speed, you need a new ISC. Clean the throttle body whenever replacing the ISC. If the ISC is not the problem, look for vacuum leaks which can cause both high and low idle. Low coolant level can cause high idle. Also, note that many clueless drivers assume that the idle is wrong (high) when the car is just using high idle (normally) for a short time after a cold start especially in cold weather.
