Continuous Memory Diagnostic Test Code (DTC) P1270 has a generic description of "Excessive Engine RPM/Vehicle Speed".
This DTC indicates that the vehicle was operated in a manner which caused engine or vehicle speed to exceed a calibrated limit. Possible causes for this DTC are:
> Wheel slippage caused by mud, snow, water, ice. etc.
> Excessive engine RPM in Park or Neutral
> Vehicle driven at an excessive rate of speed

If you are aware that one of the possible causes above occured, then there is no problem.
If there are no other drivability symptoms or fault codes, simply clear the code and move on.

Drive has little power but drive 2 has good power

sound like transmission got too hot.if you try for a long period of time keep spinning tires trying get out of mud you will burn out transmission bands and drive forward friction plates.when stuck in mud or snow dont keep spinning tires for traction will burn out transmission.

2001 ford f150 goes in reverse but not in drive

Has the transmission control module been tested for fault codes? If none are present to explain this loss of drive then you will need to remove the transmission and repair it or replace it with a rebuilt unit.

2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport XLS What is the A/T mode?

"A/T" stands for "All Terrain".
This will force the transmission to start in a higher gear thus reducing your chance of slipping when on a wet/snowy/muddy road or any circumstance where traction is poor. In mechanical engineering terms, it will lower the amount of torque at the wheels, as compared to "regular" (non-A/T) mode.

1999 ford expendition has smoke coming out of the vent

If it is a kind of sweet smell then your heater core needs to be replaced. It's leaking and you should keep an eye on your coolant level until you get it fixed. The smoke is coolant. Hope this helps.

2003 f-150, 5.4liter is idling rough, an gives codes p0316,p1270

You didn't specify where you put the seafoam (oil, gas tank, vacuum lines etc) It's very possible that the fuel filter needs changing and the spark plugs may very well be fouled. After seafoaming a car it's a good idea to really open it up to burn off the foam and residue.
