Did you put a DPFE in it?

Yes, didn't help.



Did you replace the actual DPFE sensor?

Yes, I replace this, no help.  I checked the EGR valve by pulling a vacuum with the truck idling.  The engine stammered a bit but not much – makes me think that I have blockage restricting the flow. 


I considered spraying sea foam into the exhaust side DPFE hose while pulling the vacuum on the EGR valve.  I figured it would be sucked through the orifice and ERG valve and clean out any carbon that might be restricting things.  But then I decided to take the easy way out – it goes in to the shop tomorrow.

If there was very little change to the idle when you opened the valve at idle, then yep you have a restriction..
