Please get this right so we all understand its limitations.  My
understanding of this is that it does NOT measure fuel at all, rather it
computes fuel flow through the injectors based on the time the injectors are
turned on by the computer.

I realize this is just a technicality, but a clogged injector will still
read as if it is working.

Absolutely true Bob. Poor choice of words on my part. Sorry.
