What section/page are the grounding locations found in the FSM? I can't seem to locate them and I am looking in the body electrical system.

The most important ECU ground is the dual black wire that grounds to the top of the engine. It's hidden under the intake manifold.

I've never seen that wire before, but all my cars are S4's though that shouldn't matter, or does it?

All RX-7s have this ground. Generally bolted to the vacuum spider. It's the main ECU ground that not only services the ECU but all the sensors as well.
