Well, my problem has been dubbed "the morning miss". Early in the morning when I first drive it, I go up this small hill at low rpms and the engine will miss. I've read that it could be the timing, it could be moisture in the distributer, it could be a pinhole in a spark plug wire, or it could be the EGR crapping out. That's what got me looking into the EGR stuff. It seemed to be the most common problem. I don't know what the issue on my truck is but I find that if I just warm up the engine a bit longer then it doesn't happen. So I'll just stick with warming up my engine until I can figure it out for sure. And to the one saying it doesn't increase mph, I read that because it recirculates the exhaust, your engine uses less fuel, and the oxygen percentage is lower. This all causes the timing to be a bit more efficient. That's why I wanted to add a EGR. I read stories where people bought an EGR delete kit and their milage went down. I guess it just depends on the vehicle it's in.
