Default rough idle

[align=left]i have a 2000 dakota r/t and at times acceleration is kind of sluggish. Also, when at idle the engine runs roughly. i was told that it could possibly be an egr valve. I'm not exactly sure if this is a repair i can do myself, so any information would be helpful.

Default RE: rough idle

Could also be a O2 sensor. I had that, another problem could be a clogged cat. Along with many other things. Check the manual for the valve probably the valve I am thinking. On the top of the engine.
