POs had plunked in new appliances over years, tapping into various power sources and grounds here and there over the years. The only two bolts in the engine's cooling passage side plate that broke off when I removed the plate had been used to attach a ground wire to the block for some appliance. Of interest, most of that 34 year-old non-tinned copper wire was shiny, and the plastic covering moderately flexible, except in places closer to heat and moisture. I still recall the joy of literally pulling all that stuff out during the refit, not quite understanding the pain of installing all the new wiring, but the peace of mind since then has definitely been worth it.
