Do not know what you mean when you write "the motor turned red" Do you mean it turned red hot and glowed? If so, you burned up the engine.

Where did you get the "new" motor from? Who installed it? If it's from a junk yard, then the name of the place usually indicates the condition of the replaced part, especially a motor.
