1985 Chevy S-10 V6 Four Wheel Drive Manual 100000 miles

Hello, I have a 85 s10 4x4. Yesterday I went to start it and it would barely crank. I tried to jump it but I had no luck, it would still crank slowly. Today I changed the battery, replaced the battery ground, replaced the ground strap (from the firewall to a valve cover bolt), and replaced the starter solenoid. I have power to the lights, radio and all accesories but now it will not crank at all. Please help!

Jerome.

Hold the key in start position while looking for power at the purple wire at the solenoid-do you have it if so the starter is defective and also see below circuitry.
