large red (black in pic on mine) from the solinoid to the starter, large black ground from the battery to the bolt on starter.

not sure what other 2 wires you have on mine i have the tilt/trim ground and another ground on the same bolt as the ground from the battery but you will have to give more details or a picture so we know what wires you are on about.

p.s this is one of a group of pictures i took before i did any work on my outboard just in case i forgot where the parts and wires went :)
