Does it have a distributor? Most cars after around 1985 don't have timing adjustments. Computers do it by looking at the crankshaft or flywheel. Under the hood a sticker will tell you engine info such as liters, emmission system, and idle speed. And if it has adjustable timing will mention timing, such as 10 degrees BDC or whatever. Most of todays cars can't be adjusted, I would bet that is the case with a '90 japanese car.

Need to set the timing on a 1990 maxima

im not sure about your car but some cars are interference engines,meaning if the timing belt breaks the valves will hit the pistons and it will bend the valves and the car will not run again just by putting a new belt on it,,hopefully thats not the case but alot of import cars are interference engines,,good luck

Idling and die out

The should adjust the throttle of the fuel pump to control the flow of gas . if there is two much gas going to the engine while accelerating the car use to stop or it dies .the Idle should be adjusted to according to that the car can intake and exhaust properly.There is no such problem to the car but just that simple check the carburetor or fuel pump Idle and throttle. Adjust them that the car can run properly.

Timimg for a 1990 nissan maxima

If your belt came with marks, then they should match the marks that are on the sprockets and block, if not, you must have the cam marks align with those on the engine. If you're in doubt about the exact spot, lay a tooth pick across the sprockets so that you can check alignment to the block.
