If the engine spun normally on the starter motor, but wouldn't run, then the solenoid was probably okay. It's just a big relay.
Are all the wires on the proper side of the solenoid? Everything should be on the battery (+) side except the big cable going to the starter, which should be alone on the other terminal.
Does the starter spin if you use jumper cables (or a big screwdriver) to "short" the two big solenoid terminals together?
