Since, on injected engines, there is a fuel return line that goes from the pump back to the fuel selector valve, does the Floscan sender report higher flue flow than is actually used by the engine? Or is there only a small amount of fuel returned via that bypass route?

The flip side is Dynon does tell one (pg7-41) "It is common to place the
sender downstream of any auxiliary electric boost pumps but upstream of the
engine driven fuel pump." as does Vans. I think they need to consult Floscan
on getting that perception updated!! I am usually less than .3 off at
fillups, could be user error as well since I say 60 gallons and there may be
59.X, but it is pretty consistent and minor.
My point is that it works just fine for me in the tunnel. It probably is
easier to install in the spider/ servo area as the tunnel setup was a bear
for me from the boost pump, but it works and I don’t see a need to move it..
With all that said- If I was doing this again- I would seriously consider
putting it up front by the servo/spider.
