You aren't meant to use ring lugs (the circle connectors) on the
tan Jaguars. I regret this, as ring lugs are excellent for high vibration applications, but the design of the prevents it. The tan Jaguars use a color-coded "captive screw" arrangement in which the screws are not supposed to be fully removable to prevent mixing up the color code. Successfully removing the screws causes the release of small metal fragments from the hidden part that is supposed to hold them in, which can get into the innards of the Jaguar and release the magic smoke.
The correct lug is a "spade" lug, which has an end shaped like a U. You loosen the screw slightly and slide the metal tabs underneath, then tighten vigorously.
ETA: I am happy to know that the black jags will permit ring lugs. Thanks, Joe.
