[Healeys] A bit of tuning advice

[Bob Spidell]

The semi-official recommended oil is 20W, like '3-in-1' oil or similar, 
but some use ATF or whatever engine oil they happen to carry.  I think 
SAE 90 is overkill, and might hamper acceleration.  As long as the 
engine doesn't stumble when you punch it the oil is proper.
