1990 later SPI (Japan) issue please help

Hello everyone,

I'm sorry if this have been posted before,


In past couple of days, my mini started shutting off on idle (in traffic light or parking), yesterday I changed the throttle cable which was a bit challenging job on this model compared to carb, however, I'll tell you exactly what've done:

- I have removed the spark plugs lead,
- I removed the air filter (the hole thing out of the way)
- Tried so hard to reach the hole where I have to put the new wire, so I might have did something wrong in one of the connectors out there,
- Disconnected one of the rubber hoes which leaked some coolant water from engine, did not fill it again and reconnected the hoe again,

When finished installing the new throttle cable, the car did not start at all, it's trying to but it's not starting, I don't know if I did something wrong or the shutting down happened couple of days ago endicates that I have a bad fuel pump or something else,

Please help, thanks,
