The ignition switch is probably bad and not letting the fire get to the starter from the key. I say this because you are getting fire at the starter or you would not be able to short it across the solenoid. Hope this helps.

Check the starter Solenoid.  This is a common problem and can be fixed pretty cheap.

2002 Chevy Tahoe. Car wont Start, Starter will keep on trying to start even with key out.

I'd look at the starter solenoid. It also contains the switch contacts that actually connects the battery to the motor. It may be starting to stick.

My 1997 chevy tahoe does not start right away.

Sounds like a starter problem, suggest you get it checked at your local trusted mechanic the next time it starts... If the starter is your problem it wont start for many more times.
