Welcome to the forum. The starter on yours (well, starters in general) has two terminals. The B terminal gets the thick red cable from the battery and S terminal, thinner cable that energizes the solenoid when you turn the key to START. There should be a letter B or S next to the terminals.

That's a tough one. Don't take me wrong but I don't know of anyone who can diagnose your problem from what little detail you offered. Isn't there Sunfire enthusiasts forum somewhere?
