'91 305 TBI starting issue

I just need to know how to wire the starter for I think I am missing a wire because it wont start. Power is getting to the starter, but it only clicks like crazy. Auto zone tested it and the starter is good (brand new). This is during a jump start as well that it does this. Battery is weak.

The large cable from the battery connects to the main power stud, allong with a few other wires providing power to the chassis through fusible links. A smaller violet wire connects to the "S" terminal on the starter solenoid. The starter and solenoid are grounded through the starter frame to the engine.
