Any Mechanics want to lend a hand?

I'm not a mechanic at all, but I had a GMC van that always had EGR problems.  They came out with a gasket/filter for it.  Once I had that installed I never had an EGR problem again.  It was pretty cheap too.  Something to think about if it is the EGR.

NTD:
Hmm not sure how I am going to pull vacuum on it?  That's saying I can find it.  I found a picture of the part and what I am looking at is not the EGR....

El Destructo:
Nate ...the EGR on a 3800 V6 is  behind the throttle body...it looks like a motor facing downward toward the exhaust manifold..... it connects the tube from the exhaust to the lower intake.....it will look like one of these...





El Destructo:


This should be where the EGR Valve is located on the 3800....

NTD:
Yep that's where I was looking and what I thought it was.  Problem is I can't find a hose on it and even if I did no way to put vacumm on it.  I'm downloading a video right now to show ya what I mean about the hose.
