They are no more or less accurate than todays trip computers and work in exactly the same way... speed/fuel used=MPG not exactly complicated and impossible to get wrong! lol
But as above the fuel flow sensor, level sensor and speed sensor must be working of course.

Are these sensors available as replacement parts IF they are not working OR do not come with the computer? And if so from where ?
