244 1979 Am/Fm radio wiring? 200

I am having problems hooking up the radio in my car. It was disconnected when I got the car, so I am not ure if is a good deck in the first place. The back of the stereo has 6 wires coming out of it. 4 of the wires are for the speakers, i beleive. they had these little rubber rings on each bundle of two wires, one had a "L" the other "R". So I assumed that they were for the speakers. And then there is a red wire and a blue wire, the blue wire has one side to a fuse holder. Coming from the dash I have a yellow wire, which is hot all the time and a red which is only hot when the ignition is in the on position. And then I have the speaker wires for each side. I have hooked up the speaker wires, stripes to stripes and solid color to solid color, and have hooked up the red to red, but only the left side speaker works. But when its on you can hear the enine rev up coming from the speaker. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Derin
