Clean the EGR valve and its port and passages in the EGR chamber.

could be your distributor...had the same problem it ended up being a sensor inside of the distributor...

Is there any unusual attributes on the spark plugs that you pulled out? i.e.

glazing (yellowish), deposits (oily, sooty carbon, etc.), unusual/usual wear, blistered, etc.

These can help you diagnose your engine running characteristics.
