There are already approved fuel flow sensors available that are suitable
for petrol. You might have a problem in that you probably need two sensors,
one to measure fuel going to the carb. and another measuring the amount of
unused fuel returning to the tank.

R.S. in the UK sell fuel flow sensors last time I looked....They cost about
60 UK pounds each!

Subject:        ?: fluid measurement

There has been writings about accelerometers (let it continue !).
Now it would bee nice to see if there is some solution for this:

I want to measure how much petrol goes thru my carburator
I mean to device to measure MPG in cars and such. Tube should be about 6
mm and flux about 0..100 l/h. And remember, it is flammable when in
contact with oxygen !
