I broke mine before and just left it like that for a while. It doesnt cause any issues. I eventually fixed it anyway.

Why post if you dont have anything to contribute?

Our cars also come with cats, AIR, EGR, and rear O2 sensors and most of us take all that **** out so what the **** is your point?

It's for the evaporative system and won't affect performance. A new one is about $15 if I remember correctly (I broke mine too a few years ago when I was doing the FRCs).
