I don't know of this will be of any help, but for what it's worth: I used to own an '89 Celica that had an EGR valve that had an air filter on it as part of the valve. I could tell when it needed to be cleaned, because there would be a slight but noticeable lag in acceleration from a dead stop. I got in the habit of checking and cleaning the filter yearly to prevent malfunction.
