Ported Vacuum switch broke

1994 Toyota pickup 4x4 2.4 liter

Can anybody give me a good source to purchase a Ported Vacuum switch? Its the item in the middle of the picture. Tried all the name brand auto parts stores...rockauto...ebay....the list goes on. Haven't priced this at the dealer yet...dont really want too! lol. I know its going to be expensive. If any body has a good source please let me know.

Some parts are dealer-only, and before you say "I don't wanna" you ought to at least check the price.

VALVE, BIMETAL VACUUM
Part NO.: 90925-05047
$47.85 http://www.toyotapartszone.com/oem/t...925-05047.html

Also commonly called the Thermal Vacuum Valve (TVV). It allows the engine to suck the vapors out of the evap. canister (when the engine is warm, the throttle is open). Without it, the vapors will just condense into the canister until they start dripping out.

Some have managed to repair this unit (usually when only one nipple is broken), but on mine the remaining plastic was so crumbly the repair didn't take. (I think I paid $65, having not yet heard of YotaTech ...)
