Started working on just such a project. Found a fuel rated flow meter at futurelec for about $20.00. I also will need to upgrade my speedometer with an electronic one so that I can get pulses to count (for speed). Planning on using either an Arduino Mega or a Rasberry Pi control computer, screen will be a Nextion 3.5" touchscreen. Computer parts will be less than $100. Don't know what the newer Autometer speedometer setup will cost yet.

Anyone dream of a car computer that shows instantaneous MPG and range left
in the tank?
