Anyone knowing where to find a fuel-flow meter with sensor for
gasoline with display in European units: milliliters per minute or
liters per hour..?

Thanks for tips and comments

They're not any use with injection as the fuel runs in a loop sending
unused back to the tank. And at high pressure. The normal way these
days is to count injection pulses and duration.

I suppose you could employ two (2) in-line sensors -- one on the supply
side, and one on the return side and subtract the return flow from the
supply flow in the u-processor. (I'm assuming the project used a
MicroChip [or similar uP) thingy.)

The site Trevor gave in a later post says it can work by either counting
injector pulses or a flow device.
