Default EGR Valve Help Locating it and Replacing

Hey i just purchased my 92 bonneville v6 3.8 about 2 months ago. It has few problems. My main concern is my EGR Valve it desperatley needs replaced and i cant find it. The autozone website has a guide but its examples on an 88. (88-99 manual) however it shows the EGR Valve in a different spot than mine. Where it is on the 88 is right in front of the transmition fluid dipstick. On my car in front of the Transmission Dipstick, its the gas pedal lines and runs to what seems to me the carberator (which isnt because its all electrical ) anyway can anyone please help me with this. I've been told its in the intake manifold but since i seen the manual not sure. Please respond and help me out with my problem . ITs an awesome car and in good condition. thanks a lot

Well, hate to tell you this, but your 92 does not have a EGR valve. Only the Supercharged ones in 1992 had the EGR valve. BTW, who told you the EGR needs replaced?

A. These are the symptoms of a bad EGR valve:

Engine stops after cold start.
Engine stops at idle after deceleration.
Vehicle surges during cruise.
Rough idle.

this is exactly what my car does and i figured it would be it. I thought its was bad if there was one on it. on the autozone website they have 92 bonne. egr valves so thats where i got the idea. Do you know of anything or why my car may be doing this? by the way that pic is identical to mine
