Solenoid help

89 vert gt 5.0 5spd

When I bought the car the solenoid was removed and all the wires leading up to it were cut because some installed a mini starter. I’m trying to go back to a solenoid set up. My new solenoid has 4 posts 2 large and 2 small. I’ve got no clue what wires to put where an still use the mini starter that’s on the car.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Instead of the larger wire going through the solenoid, that goes directly to the starter. The smaller wire that actually triggers the starter will go through the solenoids large terminals. The blue/red will hook up to the "S" terminal. This is how I have my '87 hooked up. If you don't use a solenoid for the smaller wire and jumper it at the starter, you can have some starter run-on.
