I know this is dumb, but:

Did you make sure you didn't knock anything out of the way while you were plugging your valve: ie spark plug wires, ignition coil, etc?

If you reconnect your egr valve, does it start?

Well, there were two vac lines that went from the egr to this lil round dingy. I plugged the lil round thingy with 2 rubbers. Sorry, but I don't know what it's called. It's on the driverside egr valve.
