But it's completely guess work. The computer has to assume the tank was filled not 5L short. it will make an adjustment once the floats are floating I just find it interesting for the first 100km or so there is no "sloshing" as far as the fuel gauge is concerned. The floats are pinned to the top of the tank. You can observe this with test six it will show no change I forget if it's 82L or 86L but there is no wiggle in the number for about 10L of consumption.
