[Tigers] grounding theory

Both the temperature sending unit and the starter solenoid are  shown as 
being grounded.  The question is how well do they have to be  grounded:-)  Will 
using teflon tape on the threads of the sending unit  allow the thread to cut 
through and still ground the unit?
I wasn't especially careful in scratching away paint at the base of  the 
solenoid to ensure good contact nor was I careful in being sure that  the washer 
on the bolt was making good contact with bare metal to  attach the solenoid.  
How well does this thing have to be  grounded?
I guess I am used to a picky electrical inspector  that insisted that the 
paint be scraped down to the bare metal and the  metal threaded to ensure a good 
ground.
