Default Is there anyway to clean/repair a EGR vacuum regulator solenoid valve

I found that mine is causing my Check Engine light, if I bypass the valve my EGR valve opens and causes really crappy idle (so I know that is working) I have vacuum on one side of the valve but not the other and I am thinking that it is clogged or dirty.

Any suggestions.

It is the model WITHOUT the temp sensor in it...so it will be in your I.M. (temp sensor)

An EGR regulator (under the MAF) not the EGR valve on the back of the intake.
