What would you be tying to ground?
You want to provide 12V to the starter circuit when the button is pushed.
What are you using for a button? Will it be able to handle the current
you're going to put through it?
You want to use a relay for this. Your button will activate the relay and
the relay will provide 12v to the starter circuit.
If you don't know how to use and wire a relay, stop right now. I will not
be party to a car fire.
