i checked and double checked the connections..they seem good to me but i did notice one thing...on on of the smaller wires that connects to the starter there is something on the wire like a covering or something...its hard to explain the wire is coming down from the engine and there is a piece then the wire continues?? kinda looks like this... ---------{ }---------- its like a red plastic covering??or something? any ideas what this is? could it be where my problem is..this is my last shot at it before i call the tow truck and let the shop deal with it.

Possibly a fusible link??? Disconnect one end of the wire and do a continuity check from one end of the wire to the other.

Damn. I thought what you were describing sounded like a fusible link. I was going to suggest you cut it out, and splice with wire toegther without it but at that point you had decided to take it to a mechanic.
Oh well, at least it is fixed.
