On an older naturally aspirated diesel your throttle position determines fuel flow rate (newer it depends on throttle position and RPM)

Figure a way of knowing exactly where your throttle is and your halfway there.

And yes there was a fuel meter made for measuring the amount of fuel into the engine but likely you would have to find one in an antique shop, perhaps monitoring your injector pulses with an MPGuino would work well enough?

Good Luck

What if there's a kinda flow meter that connected to the diesel intake and the diesel return would make an intant and average fuel consumption?

Is there any kinda thing that is possible to fit in a car like mine?
