Hello, 1st thing it sounds like it needs a tune up. Change the spark plugs, plug wires, distributer cap and rotter button. If this does not help, you might want to take your vehicle to the shop. Could be the fuel injectors are stopping up. If you havn't had your car tuned up in some time then that's probably the problem. Hope this helps.
*i shall add to the previous answer that you might want to check your MAS. mine had a similar issue and after much trial and error it turned out this was the problem. a tune up never hurts though ... hope this helped :D
Do you mean the EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) system? If so the EGR valve is located on the backside of the cylinder head under the hood cowl. Common EGR symptoms are rough idling,stalling at idle, rough engine performance during light throttle application, and stalling during deceleration. Hope this helps

The most common cause of rough idling would be a bad or clogged fuel injector. Also look for the hose on your EGR valve. They tend to come off in hot weather. If the hose comes off the engine will definitely run rough. I had to put a small hose clamp on mine to keep it from comming off. Spiritchsr1

A PCV or connecting hose problem can cause great issues with a 1997 Nissan pickup idling. In fact, this can keep it from running, even if it does start, and the engine turns over.
