Sorry, wjjones, but that's not right. On a three pole solenoid you have four wires. One heavy gage wire coming from the battery attached to one large terminal on the solenoid. Second heavy gage wire going from the other large terminal on the solenoid to the starter. One lighter gage wire going from the large battery solenoid terminal to the B terminal on the key switch. Second lighter gage wire going from the small terminal on the solenoid to the S terminal on the key switch. A three pole solenoid is grounded internally and just needs to be bolted to a good clean part of the units frame. If you replace a three pole solenoid with a four pole one, you will hook it up the same. The only difference is that a four pole solenoid must be grounded externally, and that means you must install a ground wire from the second small terminal to a good clean ground on the frame. This means that you will end up with five wires attached to the solenoid.
