RE:Reverse-osmosis purified water in cooling system?

Yes those electrons are passing from the engine/frame into the 12V side of the battery, via resistive loads which in turn powers the electrical parts.

But they use battery cables and electrical wiring for a reason, because they are low resistance. This means more voltage potential across the intended load and less across the wiring and conductors in between, like the engine for example. Put a volt meter between any ground circuit on the car and the engine block, and the voltage difference will be virtually zero, it won't be measurable.

So I don't see your point. The coolant has so much contact with the engine block that it will have the same voltage as the block, not counting electromotive forces caused solely by dissimilar metals. The electrical system will have virtually zero impact on voltages in the cooling system, IMO.
