I was at a minimum shoot some compressed air down it. Is there anything else you’d recommend doing.

Weed wicker line works stuffed down the tube. That electrical plug can get brittle and connect poorly too. Check it all.

It's easy to remove the tube so I would take it off before cleaning to keep debris falling down into the exhaust manifold to a minimum.

Also poke around in the nipple on the exhaust manifold, those can get plugged too.

I guess it was to good to be true. Just over a week of driving with no issues and then all of the sudden it’s doing the exact thing it was. Any suggestions

EBP pigtail - part# 5C3Z-12224-A

I believe Dorman sells a pigtail that works also, but I would only use Dorman products if I had NO OTHER CHOICE.
