I assume the code 32 is tossed after you are cruzin for a while; if so the ECM is not seeing the EGR switch after it calls for EGR.
If coolant temp stays below about 175deg F the ECM will NOT call for EGR while cruzin'.
Of course you can either use the diode or a relay to "fool" the ECM into thinking EGR is flowing when it calls for it.

...but i was reading vaders site and was concidering just pulling the whole system out ...
Since the wires to the EGR Sol and from the EGR Temp Sw will be easily accessable after you remove the EGR parts, I'd suggest you wait to see how it goes.
