5.8 stumbling

i have a 96 ford van with a 5.8 in it and when i am driving 50 km/h or 80 it stumbles and runs rough it runs fine otherwise. when i put a code reader on it i get a po401 which is insufficient egr flow so i removed the egr valve and its clean the air tube is clean with lots of air coming through it what else may be causing my problem?
