is this any better? I can see where it broke off at. So with it being broke in high speed it won't run right?

The broken part has nothing to do w/ the aux ports. That's one of the solenoids on the ACV. I think it's the split air solenoid, but you can check the FSM to be sure. You're not going to pass smog with it broken, but it won't do anything else.

^ Now that you mention it I do see the finger in the picture pointing to not the aux port actuator.

Thanks RotaryRocket88 for the info. It's almost due for the inspection so I will need to fix it.

Uh, it's not an aux port actuator. The finger is pointing to the ACV.

FSM is in the FAQ.
