Nope, that's not me. The Karen-Mobile is dark grey with home-made aero wheel covers, one of them brown. Until earlier this year, she also had a white passenger front door.

Unfortunately, the only 12-hole injectors I have found are rated at either 22 lb/hr (0280156336) or 24 lb/hr (0280156161), and they only have the EV4 wiring connector on them. Maybe somebody else can chime in.

I am curious as to why there was such a massive fuel economy hit.
I am not sure what flow testing the old injectors will do, other than to lighten my wallet. I do know they were unevenly flowing, and that will cause fuel economy problems by itself. I could tell because the Karen-Mobile used to have a noticeable rhythmic un-evenness when I would perform moderate acceleration. She accelerates very smoothly now.

This morning saw 27.9 MPG. Still going strong, it looks like.
