Carbon in the EGR valve

I had my truck at the local dealer and they told me I needed to replace my EGR valve. I am pretty handy with a wrench and want to do it myself. It seems with what I have read, it would be recommended to pull it and clean it first. Any suggestions? Also, they said I needed to replace my EBP sensor as well. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

It used to be a Ford service policy that if the valve was 50% clogged they would replace.
Since then a service update says to clean and replace o-rings.
But it is quicker and has more profit to replace. So they will just replace.
I clean mine at the oil change. Replaced the o-rings every other cleaning.
Just don't let the solvent get into top part.
