Code 32? Changed but still pops up! HELP

Guys I have just acquired a new project 89 Pontiac Formula 5.7 TPI!! And I have been trying to return the car back to normal operating condition. The previous owner tried to "experiment" with the car but nothing I can't address, anyways here is my issue:

Code 32 flashes (EGR) and I replaced the EGR and I drove it around all day yesterday and it run "okay". This morning I get in and crank the car and the SES light illuminates, I check the code and it flashes 32 AGAIN!! Keep in mind I disconnected the battery while I was RR the EGR and for good measure I waited an additional 20 minutes (XBOX Halo2 ) so I know the code had been erased previously from the initial EGR code. But now it has illuminated with the same code and I replaced said defective part!! Any suggestions as to what it may be??? It is driving me crazy!!
