'95 90Q - besides injectors, ISV, or vaccum leaks......what else could be causing my lean fuel mix?

Bad O2 sensor maybe??  Although with this I suppose you would get the O2
sensor DTC.....just a thought.

Normally, you measure oil consumption on a qt/mileage basis (not on a
qt/time).  My '95 uses  ~1qt/1200 miles, which is right around what "most"
of them consume at.

HTH!!
