I have a 98 Expedition EB, does anyone know anything about ERG Valve Pressure Sensors? My car idles at times and I was told that I may have a problem with mine.

are you talking about the DPFE sensor?
I think that is what Ford calls it. the EGR valve pressure sensor is usually located very near the EGR, and most times, will have an electrical lead from the EGR to it.
the DPFE sensor from Ford is only about $15. (for the V6), but if you do not have an "engine light" on, I might try just some regular maintenance first.
how many miles on your vehicle?
ever done fuel filter, or tune-up (plugs and wires)
cleaned the MAF and intake plenum?
I'd start elsewhere, because emission components will trip your service light if operating improperly (most times).
hope this helps
