Rough idle then a bad miss with blinking check engine light
I second checking for vacuum...the PCV line/valve is common problem.....spray some brake cleaner when idling rough in area along the PCV line and if it picks up to normal then you have a leak somewhere(might not be the PCV line just a vacuum leak also)- jaytron

Buzzing noise at low speed
I would look at the door module also(thingy that allows you to roll up windows after ignition turned off/door buzzer) this can make so funny noises when acting up- jaytron

Just replaced a rear axle in my 98 expy and had it jacked up by the differential.....had it up to 75 on m24 yesterday and no shudder or rear end blown apart....take your lumps, eat your crow and get your truck fixed already- jaytron

5.4L runs rough and exhaust smells

no start when hot.
sounds like a lose of vacuum...these motors are notorious for having pcv lines go bad from rot and wear....with motor on a idling rough spray some brake cleaner in the areas along the pcv line...if idle picks up to normal then you have a hole in the line somewhere- jaytron

Remote start
you could try programming your new fob to the old truck and see if that fob works using a 3x lock button(this program trick works with my 98 exp but don't know if works on newer models).....get in drivers seat and shut door then put key in cylinder and cycle from off to accessory really fast 7-8...- jaytron
