Fuel flow via Yamaha Command Link

Hi Folks,

I have a 2008 Yamaha F150 and a standard setup of a Yamaha Command Link / Paddle wheel with no optional fuel flow senders on my Ribeye 650S. I was wondering if anybody knew how accurate the fuel flow meter is as I think it was reading 20 Litres per hour at a running speed of 23ish knots last weekend.

Not sure whether or not to invest in a seperate fuel flow reader

Thanks

What kind of rpm's were you turning?

23 knots or so is (as I recall) about 7 GPH on my boat. 5000 or a bit less in rpm.
