Thanks for the help, but I have answered my own question. I got in the tundy to go to lunch, started up, and no warning lights of any kind. I even beat on it a little bit to make sure it wasnt going to come back on later. If its based on the number of starts with no codes thrown, then the magic number is 4-5 starts.

EVERYTHINGS GOOD!

And as far as using seafoam on a new vehicle, I have nearly 20k miles on mine. It smoked just as much as other vehicles did when I used it and they had 150k+ miles. That means to me that there is already some carbon buildup within the engine... If you have used seafoam before, you know the smoke that I am talking about...thick clouds of smoke.
