Good point.

I'll check the pulse width at idle. Since the 'Injector DelayuS' value is 500uS, I'd expect to see a pulse width of 500uS plus whatever injection time is needed to sustain idle. If the pulse width is less than 500uS (assuming that's the correct delay) then it's likely that the fuel consumption signal subtracts settling time from the injector pulse and directly represents the actual injection time.

If I can easily get at an injector wire I can compare that signal as a crosscheck.
