What brand O2 sensor? I've heard, and believe, these cars go through Bosch'* like candy...
And it'* pretty messed up that your sxan port is AWOL. I personally would put some effort into getting that fixed....

O2 sensors RARELY throw a light when they fail. And a 95 doesn't have a second one behind the cat to my knowledge. Even if it does, it can't be causing a performance problem.
Quit shotgunning. You'll spend more on wasted parts than if you scanned it to begin with. Have you thought about the possibility that we may have a member with a scantool nearby?

This car will have to be scanned with a scantool capeable of reading 1995 GM cars, with a 16 pin OBD2 cable... Its is OBD1, but uses OBD2 codes and connector...
Like it was said, these are all guesses... Keep guessing and you'll be throwing your money out the window
