There is a service bulletin on how to clean the EGR ports on a V6. Google A99-085.pdf to see the procedure.

Replace any maintenance items are due to be changed, like spark plugs, air filter, etc.

Usually when a the IAC valve or the EGR valve has a problem, the check engine light will tun on. If it does turn on while driving, stop by an autozone and have them read the code(s) and post the code number on here. It will start with the letter P and have four numbers, ie P1234.
