It is just logic-ic, 4011, NAND gates in a row. I made it like this, truth table:
00 0
10 1
01 0
11 0
Meaning it just subtracts outgoing fuel from ingoing.

I have it installed now in my car, and seems to work properly, no crazy jumping with instant reading, it's stable enough.

Until now, it seems to work, but i will test it with couple of tanks to see if there's something.
I will have over 500km driving at this weekend, so that is a good testing time


But funny that when i turn the key, but not start, it shows that fuel is used. At the same time when i can hear a short "whrr" from under the hood.
I did'nt know that the car pumps a little amount of fuel every time i turn the key. But that's logical, you can't start sparking with no fuel..
