Been having problems with idle on cold start.. so i had my explorer tb laying around so i thought it would of been a good time to replace. then figure out my idle issues..

so i am putting the tb on and i look down in the intake and there is a nice size puddle down in there about 6 inches back. Is that pretty much my pcv bad?

i have notice smoke on start up. and power loss with 1/4 and half throttle then to car stalling.
