Well my old starter was hit and miss so I decided to buy a replacement from Advance Auto. I got the new starter in and now the car wont start and its stuck at my auto skills center on base. My starter has 4 wires going to it. the positive, 2 red smaller wires with eyelets on the end and one small black wire. I hooked up the positive along with the two reds on the same terminal and the black one on the smaller one on the solenoid. What am I doing wrong? Yes I did hook up the battery. Thanks in advance for any help.
 
When you put the new starter on was there a bunch of grease between the block and starter. Could be a bad ground (case grounded). Is it doing anything, Clicking??
 
got it figured out

One of the wires going to the solenoid had a break in it. Fixed it and started right up.
