I need to replace the starter button on top of the starter and my replacement has an extra side post. Should I just hook the two wires on the main post and ignore the side post screw terminal completely. Thank you.

The side post is to shoot 12V to the coil when the button is pushed, by-passing the ballast resistor. If you are 6V, ignore it.
