I have a dummy pull start switch in mine. It's not smart and is hot all the time

With this system you have, is the button smart at all? By that I mean... If you just quickly push and release the button does it crank the flywheel until the engine busts over and is running or does it just crank as long as the button completes the circuit?

My DD has a smart button. Once the circuit is made, it doesn't matter what the driver does with the button, release or hold, the computer is going to either start the engine or give up the attempt when it figures out the engine isn't going to start.

I am looking for a replacement for my current setup ( pull switch ) whether it be a button like you guys are discussing or going back to a key switch.
