Replacing Ignition switch

I'm trying to replace the Ignition switch in my 1984 RX7 with a push start button. I can not find which wire from the switch engages the starter. I'm assuming it is either the Black Red, Blue, or Red Black. I can not find any of these on the wire diagrams. This is strickly a track car.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Gordon

I took a look at this and I still a little confused. The longacre switch I'm using has 3 wires a brown for hot wire, yellow for accessories, and green for the starter button. I hooked white/red to the brown, black/white to the yellow, and black/yellow to the green. When I turn the toggle on the gauges come on and that's it. When I press the start button, I can hear the fuel pump kick on, but it is not spinning the starter. It almost seems like I should hook the black/yellow, along with the Black/white to the yellow and there should be another for the starter. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
