Default Swapped D16Y8 to D16A engine and now idle/coolant issues

Swapped D16Y8 to JDM D16A engine and now idle/coolant issues:


Two issues. It's leaking coolant from a plastic pipe/drain at the bottom of the car. Passenger side.

Also, the idle surges and is generally too fast. No code.

I also have a spigot with no hose on it. Anyone know what goes on this spigot on the throttle body?

Thanks in advance. Eric

Wow, problems solved. I had the vacuum hose that is supposed to go on the spigot connected to the cooling system! Coolant was getting into the vacuum system and draining out the evap. canister! LOL. Fixed that and then fixed a big vacuum leak and now all is well.
