Much and all as that sounds like a good theory I am having difficulty with
the logic.
A starter won't work if an engine isn't adequately grounded and a ground of
sufficient size to operate a starter will definitely be big enough to
eliminate any EMF difference between the engine and the chassis.
I've had an aluminum radiator corrode to worthlessness after only 3 years,
with corrosion inhibitors in the coolant, and have yet to hear a realistic
explanation for why it happened.
