Starter Wires???

Hey all,
I took my starter off to get to the slave cylinder. Now I am having trouble remembering where each wires connects. There are three wires, a giant black one and a smaller medium sized black one that has a little red wire coming from the same harness. I know where the giant black one goes (positive lead for starter) I know where the little red one came from. But I am having trouble remembering where the other black wire came from. I think it is a ground but i just cant remember where i removed it from. any help????

pretty sure it goes on the small post along w/ the red. You didn't remove the solenoid wire did you? (center post)

Garage
The two larger (one is from alt. to starter, other is starter to battery) go on the one large stud, the smaller wire (ignition switch signal wire) goes to the small stud.

Duck has it

Techno Duck is right yet again...appreciate the help.

Now I just need to figure out how to bleed the system by myself. Right now the clutch pedal just goes to the floor and stays there.

Bleeding the hyraulics

I have tried every bleeding procedure I can find online and I still cant get any clutch pedal. It just snaps to the floor and stays there.

I have a pump similar to a power bleeder but when I try to pump fluid up from the slave cylinder up to the reservoir it wont go, it just pushes fluid out of the connection between the nipple and the hose.

Any Ideas???
