What kind of gasoline for Nissan Xterra?
All 3.3 supercharged FI MFI Xterra's require premium gasoline. --- running on regular or ethanol will probably trigger the Xterra's knock sensor in this engine. Since replacing the knock sensor (code 324 or related) in the Xterra supercharged engine is extremely expensive (figure $650-$750) depending on year and location... --- use premium. The "non aspirated" 3.3 cylinder Xterra can use regular gasoline IMO.... --- personally, I would try to avoid ethanol blends (10%) since the Xterra engines are somewhat sensitive to lower grade fuels.
Can unleaded gasoline be used in an engine made for regular gasoline?
Unleaded gasoline is regular gasoline. Lead used to be added to gasoline to prevent engine knocking but the practice has been banned in most developed countries. 2nd Answer: There are some engines, a lot of them not in cars, that are made to use regular gasoline. They are designed so that the lead in regular old gasoline will build up on certain moving parts, and keep them sealed against engine pressures. Unleaded gas is not good for this type of engine, at all.
