Thus you would want to monitor the ecu output if possible. Not exactly sure on 95, my experience is with TBI (approx 94 back) and gmt800 (approx 99+).
At this stage, this technique is not endorsed for those cars with electronic throttle control or CVTs. So I am referring to mechanical throttle cars, where I found using a throttle stop, and then monitoring throttle blade position, best for consistency.
