You can bump the starter and turn it over without the GPs in it. This will clear the cylinders completely after sucking out the majority of the oil. Just do it with the valve covers on it and use a couple bolts hand tightened to hold them on there. let us know how it goes!

I missed that you have A codes. The big advantage Hybrids have is they inject the same 225 cc as your A codesin a much shorter time frame and gets you more power doing so.
Now, put 200% nozzles on your 225's and that changes everything....

Or just follow one around.
First time in 10 years I ever had to file a claim for a lost set of injectors. A few weeks ago a customer said the FedEx truck pulled up and the driver went in back to get his package and found the rear doors were open and the injectors were no where to be found.

Now that sucks!! Mine got here today and the old ones are packaged up and heading your direction tomorrow. My wife said they look the same. I responded its what's on the inside that counts. Not sure if I scored brownie points or not. She probably thinks I'm being a SA

No telling what women think when we talk mechanics. Sometimes I get frustrated and just say that I can't explain it!
