Premium only

...

WHEN I recently bought a 2000 VT Calais Series 2 with the supercharged V6 engine, the salesman told me to use premium unleaded only. I was wondering if this was correct, or if putting normal unleaded would harm the engine?

THE supercharged V6 should run on PULP as you were advised. Running it on regular unleaded could result in damage to the engine.
