Yes, a malfunctioning EGR will make the motor run like ***. But what's this about black smoke, you never mentioned this before. What fuel pressure are you getting on the fuel rail? Is there any gas or gas smell in the vacuum line attached to the fuel pressure regulator? There should not be.
What firing order do you have the plugs wired for?

the plug wires are correct. I dont know what the fuel pressure is or even how to check it. the black smoke is not constant on when revved up to a high rpm and then let off
