EGR Valve code

Today I got code 33 out of my truck. EGR Valve Opening Not detected...would this cause my truck to run weird? It stumbles quite a bit at start up and then it trims out and runs great. I was half expecting to see an o2 sensor code. I wouldn't think it would make the truck run worse as I have completely blocked off egr's before. But I dunno, anybody?

If the ECM thinks it's closed and it's really open it will cause problems. Try cleaning the EVP sensor.
