Starter relay wiring

The I is the start. That is start signal coming from your key or push button. If you have a real heavy duty push button, you don't need the relay

G is ground through the neutral switch, or clutch switch.

The earlier stick cars (before 70) only had three terminals......I for start, the big stud for battery, the square one for solenoid, and the "case ground."


So if I am just using 12 volts to a switch and out of that switch to the ignition, I don't need to use the I spade correct?

Or do I need to put a wire from the I spade to the out side of the ignition switch? If I do that, I will always have 12 volts at the ignition and not be able to turn it off.

I'm still cornfused.
