stuck egr

guys, my truck has a stuck egr, my dealer is an hr away, is there anyway to try to free it up? truck had a turbo replaced due to turbo rot and i have a feeling the egr got the same, turbo was replaced 3k miiles ago and now egr makes a woosh woosh sound while driving, i unplugged the egr and had to go pick up a trailer and while it seemed to help with no load once i got trailer, around 5k in weight it was almost hesitating up hills, boost was up and down 10 psi, as well as rpm was varying, plugged it back in and it got alot better with trailer, but now with no trailer it seems to be worse now, anyway sucks to bring it to dealer because they drag there feet.

Pull it out and clean it with carb cleaner,its not easy to pull but it will come with some elbow grease. Check the tech folder for details.
