The best way I've had a EGR cleaned (it was on a 1996 Dodge avenger, but EGR's work the same) was using a product called seafoam. The way to use it is to have someone work the gas (with the car running) to keep it from stalling, and slowly pour the Seafoam into a direct vacuum line to the intake manifold. It should smoke like crazy, so don't worry. Pour abour half the can in, then stop the engine after pouring. Let the car sit for about 5-10 min, then restart. Take it for a quick drive to get rid of the extra seafoam in the engine, and you should be okay. If the engine light doesn't go off, take it somewhere (advance auto parts) and have them delete the code.

If the timing belt broke in a 2000 Mazda Protege 1.8 will the car be damaged?

A 2000 Mazda Protege with 1.8 DOHC engine appears to be a "free-running" engine, meaning there is no valve/piston interference in case the timing belt broke. There is enough clearance between the valve and piston, even if the cam stops (i.e. the timing belt breaks) with the valve fully open. Therefore, the car will not be damaged if the timing belt broke.
