On my 92 it is just behid the Throttle body on the passenger side. I am not sure if yours is as well but its a place to start.

 

Is that for a v8?

Cause i don't see one back there.

This thing is really ticking me off. Truck as been nothing but problems so far.
And i can't believe ican't find the egr valve.

We don't have EGR (exhaust gas recirculate) on (at least the 1996) motors. Probably why you can't find it.
That is not to say we don't have pollution-control devices.
We do have an EVAP system (there is a canister located on the front, passnger side of the engine compartment that traps fuel tank vapors, which are later released into the intake manifold), and a PCV system. And, of course, the CAT.

 

Thanks i have come to the conclusion that there isn't one. Even though murray's has a part number for it haha.

Well my problem is my truck wont idle sometimes, it just dies unless i give it gas. And i was 100% sure it was the egr valve sticking. Now i don't know what it is. Any ideas?

Another user is having the same problem. This is can be caused by a faulty or dirty IAC (idle air control) motor. These are mounted on the back of the throttle body, are controlled by the PCM, and the function is pretty self-explanitory (the PCM tells it how much air to allow into the intake at 'idle', therefor setting idle speed)

 

I am going to pull those out tomarrow, clean them and re-install.

Thanks for your help so far.

Much appreciated.
