i'd be nervous of the tranny flush...i have no experience with it, but the tranny is something i personally wouldn't mess with. i have confidence in our engines but not in the automatic trannies

1.) your IAC censor or MAF sensor may be dirty from the smoke produced in the cylinder banks from the seafoam

2.) your plugs are very dirty from the seafoam

3.) did you put seafoam in your oil? if you did, your oil may be a lot thicker than usual, making more effort to pump oil at idle.

may be any one of the three, or even a combination.
