    I looked up Seadog 420351-1, and found it for sale for magneto engines BUT it also says the ignition terminal gets 12V when on (for accessories), but not when cranking.

    If you have a meter or a test light you can check the connection between the battery and ignition terminals.  If they’re connected in any switch position do not connect the ignition terminal to your magneto!

    I’d look for a version of the switch with two M (magneto) terminals, that are connected together in the off position, and never to anything else!
