You may end up testing wires from the PCM out to the distributor with the ohm meter. I’ll have to assume the new distributor is good. You have pulse so the PCM is alive. Maybe take the LED tester to the pin at the PCM for the ignitor.
Some Dodge Caravan heater cores. You have to remove the side mirrors to unplug to pull the dash WTF.
Plastic intake gaskets gm 3.1l, 3.8l It pays well to fix but it’s an engineering failure. German cars PCV and Secondary air plastic pipes (crunch). Fords good old P0171, p0174 vacuum leaks and the Powerstroke ack! And please no Mini Coopers any repair on them is an uphill battle.

The problem is interesting. Sounds like you checked everything and it HAS injector pulse. I was unable to find a wiring diagram online. I did find this link

Hope it helps

I don’t know how you would know cyl6 is lean.
code 172 172- Oxygen sensor not switching – system is or was lean bank 1
Since it’s a 95 it’s OBD I
OBD II code would be P0171 1996 and up (confusion by Ford)Either way a common fault is a cold start vacuum leak. The intake manifold gaskets leak before the engine comes up to operating temperature. I don’t remember if you can get freeze frame data on a 95.
If you can, see if the code set engine cold. Sometimes it will be so bad the intake will whistle before it heats up.
Check for a vacuum leak with a dead cold engine.I don’t know how you would know cyl6 is lean.

Could the suspension have been pulled down with a pry-bar to meet the strut eye or would it have been a two man job?
I appreciate you show potential mistakes. I have misaligned rear struts mounts before.
Good video on a common problem

In 2003 only GM fluid was dextron 3. Dextron 6 is supposed to be backward compatible. I was wondering if anyone knows for sure if it’s better in an older car built with dextron 3.
Does it really mix or is GM just consolidating inventory to stock only dex 6?

I have used that machine. Works great and small size. Only problem I had was the ball in the meter sometimes would stick down. Just gave it a tap and it would be fine. I still don’t understand how something so simple cost as much as a scanner.

I wonder if you can make a smoke machine. For evap testing you need the calibration. For just leak checking a good low pressure regulator to shop air might be enough. I’ll have to Google that.
Another use, I’ll hook it up to evap to test after I install a fuel pump. I’ve had comebacks for the sealing oring not seating. I like to make sure now before I let it leave.
