EGR / MAF Help

I have a 95 Transport 3.8L and what I have read from this group on the EGR valves it looks like mine needs to be replaced. Start the van up in the morning when it is cold or even when it is warm after about 30sec it sounds like the engine wants to stall. When driving it seems to start to choke at around 60Km;s or so and higher. If you need to pass someone (not flooring it) the van seems to choke, it you them floor it it seems to go away.

Now my questions are:

On the EGR valve you guys have said to discconect it and see how it runs. Unplug and let it idle for a couple of minutes or take it for a drive for 20 min?

Someone else had said it could be a small wire in the MAF area which could be dirty and needs to be cleaned. I have taken a pic of the MAF area on my van and need to know where this wire is to be cleaned.

Just replaced the fuel filter, spark plugs, starter and had a tranny flush.

Any help would be great.
Thanks
