HELP< Electronic/computer help needed MPG related

OK Here is my problem.

The MPGUnio is great BUT as it takes it read out from the ECU side of the injector, it cannot see the changes I am working on.

I have a system that lets me control the injectors duty cycle.

Neither the MPGUnio nor the Scan gauge II can give me a real time readout of fuel used and MPG.

I have a fix for this IF I can get some help.

The old Zemco MPG Computer.

It uses a fuel flow meter system and its own speed/distance readout sensors.

BUT:

Most cars use a fuel return line.

So this system will gladly show me how much fuel flows though the system and right back to the tank.

So I think, use two flow meters, one in and one out.

Subtract the out flow count from the incoming count and you have the amount taken/used by the injectors.

The output needs to match the single flow meter’s system of a low count of negative going pulses.

I am so close to a real fuel saving system that controls the injectors but 100 miles test runs are hard to do.

I need a real time readout so I can see how much I can save and when I can either go farther or have gone too far and am hurting MPG with stumble and misfiring.

Can anyone help??
