Anyway, I wonder what technique you have been using in this regard, as far as how you gather your fuel consumption data. You might have some tips that could be valuable for others to hear.
We use total fuel usage of three tanks, approx 120 liters, to adjust the SuperMID's fuel parameter among five testers.
We could adjust the parameter within 1% error using the 0.5msec fix amount of delay.
