his 'car' is an 04 or 05 dodge grand caravan couldn't tell you engine size, yes I do have a vom, but no vacume pump.. er.. well.. I know a guy with an electric vacume pump used for vacuming down ac systems.. could maybee get that...

The reason a vacuum pump is necessary (or vacuum source the engine can be used in a pinch) is being able to operate the egr manually and test the sensor.
I am presuming it is a egr position sensor code (could be egr temp and that is a different procedure its a thermistor) and if so the sensor is simply a rheostat so as the egr is drawn up with the vac pump it will change resistance now there will be a range thats acceptable to the ecu and we will or may be testing several ways.
And like I mentioned I am a member of iATN I can search the database for pattern failures and that saves me a ton of time in many instances and is the first thing I always do when I get a new car I am not familiar with so once I know the details I will check it out for you. ( I fix Toyota and Honda is my specialty I can tell you off the top of my head 95% of their issues)
