Could I possibly JB Weld it back together temporarily? I don't know how soon I can get the part.

you could JB weld it or you could just unplug it and block it off. That will set a SES light but will still drive fine.

Only if you are worried about emissions, other than that you just need to get the code taken out of the PCM if the SES light bothers you.

hell yes, I'm unplugging mine tomorrow then. Do you just block the hard metal line off with a little rubber cap? also, anyone know off the top of there head what the code is it throws so I can go ahead and disable it.
