Why complicate things. There is no need. 

All you need to to get acupuncture fuel tank contents is MGL fule computer y
ou don=99t have to connect to gps or a flow meter. It can be used as a
 simple fuel gauge. https://www.aeroshop.eu/en/mgl-velocity-asx-2.html

It is simply connected to a fuel float

You simply add fuel at 5 x 11 Lt intervals and add it to the settings on the
 fuel computer. First fill the reserve side if the tank first. 

9 Lt. in reserve 
5 X 11 Lts
Total 64 Lts. Tank full

The fuel computer now will display accurate fuel contents in 1 x 1 Lts inter
vals 

Job dun.
