It was pouring fast from underneath? Have to be a little more exact than that.....intake manifolds don't leak that fast.....need to add coolant to a cold engine and rent a coolant pressure tester....should be easy to find...since not coming from the reservoir, could be a radiator hose, heater core hose, radiator, w/p, or coming out of the condensate drain due to a leaking heater core....

Which engine?
