Default service engine light

ok so this weekend(saturday) i put my steeda pullies on. every thing seems to be ok, no wobble in the pullies, belts running smooth, no noise. i also changed my t-stat, lost roughly .5- .75 gallons of coolant. DID NOT REFILL. driving around later my serv. eng. light comes on and flashes for about a minute and goes off. this is the only time it done it. i filled up the coolant today and drove to work tonight 50 miles all highway and NO light. i had a monte carlo that done this when coolant was low, so is this why it came on, because of the low coolant? do the mustangs do this also?
