Starter Wire Hook Up (Verification)
This may sound stupid, but I just want to double check this hook up. There are three wires that get hooked up to the starter - the battery + cable, another big wire, and a small wire (which is think is the ignition wire). Here's a pic of the wires (minus the battery cable):

I just bought a Summit mini starter and I think the directions tell me to hook it up like this:

There's only one small terminal and there's two big ones, but one of the big ones runs the wire to the starter motor. Please let me know if I'm right or wrong! Thanks.

The large ring terminal with two wires (fuse link feeds) should connect to the large stud along with the positive battery cable.
The smaller ring terminal with the single wire (pink or purple) should connect to the "S" terminal on the starter solenoid.
Pretty much just like you have it labeled.
