Figured with 135k I'd run some seafoam through brake booster. Let motor warm up. Slowly poured half can in line. Connected booster line back on and waited 15 minutes, no smoke at all. I'm second owner and previous owner took good care of maintenance but I expected something. Did I miss something???

No, the Triton motors run pretty clean, you rarely see any smoke. Very light if any at all.

I saw some YouTube videos of 5.4 f150s and expeditions smoke like hell. So that's what I was expecting

Mine is 05 with 132000. I did the seafoam intake cleaner and noticed minimal smoke but directions said shut it down and drive it hard. That's when I saw the smoke, with engine under load. I expected smoke while spraying but it didn't come until later.
