It's weird that it shows an implausible number at first but i suspect the key was on at some point with the right side disassembled to put that starting number into memory.

The right side holds exactly 5L of fuel when the left side is lower than the driveshaft hump.

My right side consistently settled down to 3.0-3.1L right now. This seems consistent with "The right side holds exactly 5L of fuel when the left side is lower than the driveshaft hump." Why do you think it should be 1.4L?

I won't get much time to work on it again, so will drive it when I can to get the total close to empty and see if it is still Ok.
