I have a 84' NH80 Aero.
I can kick start it with out issues, now If I hook up a battery and use the button it turns over find but it won't fire. (No fire to the plug)
with the battery hooked up I can Kick it and it starts fine.
What could be my problem?

Thats what I was thinking!
But It doesnt make sense to me.
As soon as I let go of the starter button, I can kick it and it fires right up.
I'm thinking Maybe a bad relay, but I don't know the electrical system yet.

The battery is hooked up correctly.

Actually, that's about right. Look for big black wires running to the frame. Remove, clean, reinstall.
