I need help locating the EGR Valve on my car to replace the gaskets.

Currently have engine code P0442; small EVAP Leak.

If I accelerate too quickly my engine bucks and will not exceed 2000-2500 RPM.

I can eventually get to high speeds, but I have to accelerate slowly.

Symptoms point to a bad EGR Valve, but I am having a hard time locating on my specific engine.

Thank you in advance for the help.

No, those symptoms don't point to an EGR valve at all. In fact it doesn't appear that this car even has an EGR. The EVAP code is a leak in the fuel vapor system for the fuel tank. You need a smoke machine to find that leak. The engine problems could be anything. You're description is just too vague on that.
