Kill Switch!

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew! im in the process of upgrading, i have installed a new z155 engine wired everything up apart from the kill switch. When the kill switch is not connected i get a big spark, and when i connect it i get a really really weak spark, please does anyone know what this could be?

Cheers!

if your not bothered about running a kill switch just take it off and if u need to kill the engine put it in gear and let the clutch out to stall it
