E.missions G.as R.ecirculation.... Its a valve that opens and closes with vacuum to allow emission gasses to be recirculate to the combustion chamber to be reburned. not sure where it is located on our cars. but yea if that is not working the car doesnt run worth a crap.

Its pretty easy to test urself....all you really have to do is take the vacuum line off and put a hand vacuum pump on it to see if the diaphram is torn or cracked. If it hold pressure then its usually still good. It maybe just clogged.
