ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for measuring the fuel consumption of a vehicle has a flowmeter in each of a forward fuel flow line and a return fuel flow line, with a device for detecting a difference in the flows and calculating the fuel consumption, wherein a gauging device is associated with at least one of the lines for adjusting the apparatus to obtain identical signals from each of the flowmeters under conditions where forward flow is substantially the same as return flow, thereby eliminating the necessity of selecting matched pairs of flowmeters for the flow lines.
