A molecular line survey towards the UC H II region G34.3+0.15 from 155.3 to 165.3GHz has been conducted with the TRAO 14-m radio telescope. Combined with our previous observations from 84.7 to 115.6GHz and 123.5 to 155.3GHz (Paper I), the spectral coverage of this survey in G34.3+0.15 now runs from 85 to 165 GHz. From these latest observations, a total of 18 lines from 6 species were detected. These include four new lines corresponding to <TEX>${\Delta}$</TEX>J = 0, <TEX>${\Delta}$</TEX>K = 1 transitions of the <TEX>$CH_3OH$</TEX> E-type species, and two new lines corresponding to transitions from <TEX>$SO_2$</TEX> and <TEX>$HC_3N$</TEX>. These 6 new lines are <TEX>$CH_3OH$</TEX>[1(1) - 1(0)E], <TEX>$CH_3OH$</TEX>[2(1) - 2(0)E], <TEX>$CH_3OH$</TEX>[3(1) - 3(0)E], <TEX>$CH_3OH$</TEX>[4(1) - 4(0)E], <TEX>$SO_2$</TEX>[14(1, 13) -14(0, 14)] and <TEX>$HC_3N$</TEX>[18 -17]. We applied a rotation diagram analysis to derive rotation temperatures and column densities from the methanol transitions detected, and combined with NRAO 12-m data from Slysh et al. 1999. Applying a two-component fit, we find a cold component with temperature 13-16K and column density <TEX>$3.3-3.4 {\times} 10^{14} cm^{-2}$</TEX>, and a hot component with temperature 64 - 83K and column density <TEX>$9.3{\times}10^{14} - 9.7 {\times} 10^{14} cm^{-2}$</TEX>. On the other hand, applying just a one-component fit yields temperatures in the 47 -62 K range and column densities from <TEX>$7.5-1.1 {\times} 10^{15} cm^{-2}$</TEX>.
