1) I was sent a set of instructions to tune up my SU carbs on my 4.2 L Jag.
   The instructions say to use a "light-weight motor oil". What is light-
   weight?  10-w30?  WD-40? What is reccomended?

2) This next question is a little bit more speicialized.  Does anyone
   know what is the stock, front turn signal light are for a 66 e-type?
   I have an orange and white one on the driver's side, and a just plain
   white one on the passenger's side.  They are diffrent styles and shapes,
   ( the white one is NOT sunfaded ) but both fit the holders perfectly.
   This has caused much confusion.  I have seen the clear lights on a 
   66 jag in june's car and driver (see sig). But at a swap meet, a jag
   dealer said the orange ones were the correct lenses.  AAAAAGGGGGGGHHH!
   To add to the confusion, there are two jags in the car and driver 
   (june 1990 page 134) that has two 66 jags on it. One jag has
   the orange lights, the other has clear!!!   AAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHH!
   Does anyone know?
