Finally!
The list breathes again! It's kind of sad how much I look forward to
getting my daily forum of Spridget tales each day.
By the way, I had my friend Lacey paint a union jack on my cast on my
arm. Yeah! :)
Anyhoo--

On most cars I've seen, the negative battery terminal is connected to
the chassis. Period. That's it.
Then, the engine block is connected electrically to the chassis close to
the bottom of the car somewhere. But that's just my experience, and I
only know stuff about 1500s. My friend's Volvo has the ground strap
connected somewhere under the dash. *shrug* Go figure.

I have no idea. Mine are 8mm. - Weber DGV. Prolly doesn't help you.
