sorry i dont get what point your making in your message? is it just the difference your noticing... ? your fuel appears to be higher after the ECu reset? hmmm its probably just initially..possibly later just settles back to normal.

can i ask how you reset your ECU and why?

cheers

to reset the short term memory of the ecu disconnect the Battery and reconnect, to remove long term memory disconnect for approx 10 mins, this should clear any stored faults

cant really see what resetting the ecu has on the fuel guage, the reading is dictated by the sender unit

either way, you still have the same physical amount in the tank

i assume you took the readings with the car sat in exactly the same place

fuel gauges on our cars ar smart as hell. they dont show actual amount of fuel left in tank, but calculate fuel consumped by engine and then shows how much should be left.
