I have looked at both articles. I have a composite tank but I believe my fuel system is grounded properly. I use a float indicator for my fuel level. The float is on a metal rod in the tank. The fuel sender has both a signal wire and a ground wire. The ground wire goes to the electrical ground bus and to the engine.
If I attach the fuel system ground anywhere that connects to the engine, the system should be grounded. I would think many KRs have a similar set up?

Not one then the other, both at the same time to dissipate any charge differential. Anyone questioning if the body can conduct and dissipate a charge has never walked across a carpeted room and gotten zapped by the door knob. Many years ago my wife destroyed the $100 tuner on the old t.v. set when she walked across the room and touched the knob. Maganavox made replacement knobs entirely out of plastic. I'm guessing we weren't the only customers to experience that problem.
