Can I expect reduced mpg's with a 6-port that is running on 5 ports?

I did something that I very much regret and tried to loosen up the #1 auxiliary port by using pliers and turning the end of the auxiliary port shaft. This is the part which is connected the actuator and it is no longer there, so the actuator has nothing to connect to. I'm not really sure exactly how open or how closed this port is, I have a good feeling it is probably half way open.

Just about any time you have something done contrary to what the ECU expects you'll have reduced efficiency. Just fix it, and at the same time you can make sure both your aux ports are opening properly. There have been a lot of complaints/help threads on the topic of auxiliary ports.
