Error code 332: Insufficient EGR Flow Detected
I have a 1996 F-150 I-6, 4.9 litre truck. Anyway, for almost a year now, I have been getting this annoying engine light that keeps intermittently coming on and off.
I purchased an inexpensive Actron testor that is designed for the old OBD 1 computers. I diagnosed the problem to be error code 332, which my Chilton book says is an Insufficient EGR Flow Detected.
Question: What is the best way to troubleshoot this? Should I just replace the EGR valve, or are there a multitude of tests to do? Also, is the EGR valve located on the driver's side of the engine, craddled under the engine block? I think I saw it when I was eyeing the inside of the engine compartment.
Hope to hear from someone soon.

Thanks for the information
Thanks for the information. I will try cleaning the EGR valve, but I will say that the screws are covered pretty well by the intake manifold. Will that have to be removed? One screw seems accessible, but the other is in there a way, and blocked by one of the intake manfold tubes.
