Default too low? prestone gone... what to do? :(

I was out taking pics of my 90 EF (lowered 2inches on Neuspeed Race) I think I scraped something underneath cause now all my prestone leaked out. What to do? What did I break? Thanks

Probably just a hose, and it leaked down along the header to the cat. I dont think its related to the drop of 2" if its a hose.

Or along the back side of the block. There's a couple of hoses there it could be.

Could be a radiator hose, heater hose, or one of the coolant lines running near the intake manifold.

I broke a hose the other day, had to drive 2-3 minutes with no water...

I hate when **** like this happens.

Find the leak and fix it...

Raise car back up or be more careful when driving. Check your lower radiator hose.

I think that's what it is. Cause this morning I filled the car back up with water, drove around a bit and there was no problem. Tonight I drove around and when I got back home water was pouring out again. I'm sure its a hose underneath somewhere. A lower radiator hose like you said? How many radiator hoses are there? Thanks for the help.
