Default Error code 32

Hello all. Just looking for things to be looking for on an error code 32. Here is what I have noticed and done so far.

I havnt been running the dakota much of late, its probably sat for two months. A few weeks ago I used it as a gopher to get a part for my ram when it started acting like it wasnt getting much fuel. I have already replaced the fuel pump so I was praying it wasnt that and right about then it came out of it and I didnt think much of it since. Last week I was driving through town again and it suddenly dies on me in an intersection! It started right back up but again, acting like it wasnt getting enough fuel. *NO CEL AT THIS TIME* So I put the original PCM, TPS, MAP sensor and IAC valve back on and drove it around and I got the same problem. So I was then thinking bad fuel filter. I tapped on the fuel filter a few times with my knuckles and it ran perfect for the last two days. Today I noticed the jerky action again this morning and while driving to work from lunch I get a CEL. CEL is a 32. While I had the intake off last summer installing the new hughes plenum I took the EGR off and cleaned it up. I punched the guts out of the cat two summers ago and installed a new O2 sensor as well. Any other suggestions on what I should look for?

**UPDATE**

Jumped in the truck to leave work and there check engine light was off. It didnt act up at all on the way home (10 miles or so).

The FAQ has a CEL list in it.
https://dodgeforum.com/forum/1st-gen...-96-codes.html

Code 32 is "32** EGR Solenoid circuit short or open condition detected"

I would at least start by checking that everything is tight and put on properly.

if that egr fails in the open position its a huge vac leak witch confirms your stalling issue. maybe a piece of carbon syuck in it or its being commanded open and sticking

I double checked all lines and made sure connections were secure. It hasn't acted up since the day it threw the code. I will take the egr out and see what it looks like when it cools down.
