P0174 & misfiring cyl 6?

can misfiring do error: P0174,bank 2 and cyl 4-6 goes lean?

at idle P0306 = cylinder 6 misfiring...it must be either way..
lean condition does the misfiring or misfiring does so that it goes lean..

A misfire should cause a rich condition due to not burning the air/fuel charge. Since it's all the cylinders in bank 2(I understand "4-6" to mean 4 through 6) I would think it may actually be a bank 2 O2 sensor failure.

yes 4 through 6.

-first appeared(not anymore):HO2S B2 S1 RANGE / STUCK RICH
-then (not anymore):Oxygen Sensor Circuit Slow Response (Bank2, Sensor1)

-last ones,allmost every day:P0174 System Too Lean (Bank 2)
+ latest P0306, misfiring cyl 6.

intake vacuum leaks not found as much as you can search without going under car.smoke machine ordered (cheap one) + bank 2 O2 sensor too.
because the misfiring cyl 6 i thought everything maybe is because misfiring...but maybe i should wait and change the O2 sensor first and
use the smoke machine.

something to add...

previously when it was raining i noticed the problem occured like multiplied stronger than when not raining.

this morning again when raining...the hick ups were again much stronger.
water reflects now to somewhere with this problem.

can rain affect to the possible intake vacuum leak or to the O2 bank 2 sensor1?
(will update details next week, allready have new sensor + spark plugs + smoke machine to see possible leak)
