Do you have the mini-starter? If so, all of the wires except the big wire will go on the left side of the solenoid.

Standard wiring:

The aft 5/16" stud gets all the connections EXCEPT for the big wire that goes to the starter.

The front 5/16" stud gets the big wire that goes to the starter and nothing else.

The little 10-32 stud get the red push on connector

The secondary power ground is between the back of the intake manifold and the driver's side firewall. It is often missing or loose. It supplies ground for the alternator, A/C compressor clutch and other electrical accessories such as the gauges. Any car that has a 3G alternator needs a 4 gauge ground wire running from the block to the chassis ground where the battery pigtail ground connects.

The computer has its own dedicated power ground that comes off the ground pigtail on the battery ground wire. Due to it's proximity to the battery, it may become corroded by acid fumes from the battery. It is a black cylinder about 2 1/2" long by 1" diameter with a black/lt green wire.

On the aft 5/16" std with the rest of the wiring. It is a circuit breaker.
