"Earth" is precisely what's wrong on models up till the mid 60s (if memory 
serves) as they were positive earth (the ground was positive).

Seriously, the electrical systems seem to give American owners nothing but 
trouble.  I don't know why, but you're not the first UK owner who has told me 
that they have never had trouble.

Most of us have never had anything but.

I've often wondered if it hs something to do with the modifications of the 
basic cars done for import into the US.
