The EGR solenoid valve should not have any exposed screws. It should have a little air filter at one end and a nipple with a hose connected to it on the other end. Actually, it has 2 hoses connected to 2 nipples 90 degrees opposed at the other end. It sounds like you are missing the little air filter. I would replace the valve, you are sucking in dirty air into the EGR valve, which may eventually cause it to fail.

Yes, that is the TPS, and the adjustment for it.

instead of getting another valve just get a block off plate. the EGR valve only hurts your low end power anyway by putting in burned gasses at low RPM. just take it off
