You don't say what year, but probably red/yellow is start, purple/white is choke, and black/yellow is stop.

That's a 1978. The colors I gave came from a 1979 diagram, might be similar.

You lost me. Somebody else may have the diagram for that year.

To trigger the solenoid or choke would be the violet with white stripe as FR said, maybe yours has been rewired?? Trace the purple wire back, does it go to engine primer solenoid coil? If so that is it. As far as the kill, it should be black yellow as stated. Trace both black wires back. 1 will go to the engine chassis or battery negative. The other should go to engine ignition kill circuit. That will be the one that you want.
