2001 Chevy Impala 4 cyl Automatic 176000 miles

hi,I have a Chevy Impala 2001 an Im having some problem.My car seems not to want to go.It wont accerate the way it suppose too.As I push on the gas to go it takes its time to kick into gear but when it do it starts to slow back down again I push on the gas a little more an it seems to pull even more.I think I have a solution,I think its my throttle position sensor or my ERG valve.

with that trouble code and those symptoms it is very likely that the EGR valve is contaminated and either needs cleaned or replaced.
