There are two wires connected to the starter.
I'm guessing you are touching the small wire when you manually add power.
It could be you ignition switch or sterner relay. Possibly the ground wire that goes to the starter relay.

Where is the sterner relay at by the way? And for the ignition switch would I need the whole ignition assembly or just the wiring or the cylinder?
