    Good morning,
    I am driving AMS2 for a couple of days and I recognized, that the amount of fuel is different to the dashboard I got from Z1 Dashboard itself. Maybe there is a different unit of measurement in AMS2?

    In Z1 it is shown in liter (Amount is about 18 instead of 12 from AMS), so I guess it is shown in kg in AMS2 Can this be switched to Liter???

    Supposedly it is liters (there is an L unit next to it), at least for us using the metric system. It follows the pattern <number><unit> (<number> laps) - ie.: 18L (12 laps) for a given car/track combo.

    What I found out is that the estimated laps number seems to be off, so I usually put 1 or 2 laps more worth of fuel.

    Sorry, neither in the Overlays nor in the cockpit is an L and in my Dashboard this amount is shown as 52,4 or stuff like that...

    And I don not know, how much thi really is...

    Can anybody explain, how to set units fo length to meters, fuel top liters, temps to degree Celsius... It is very important for any calculation... The options menue is not really self explaining.

    Thanks Oliver

    I found the mistake. The settings in SIM are correct, but the settings in my hardware display is sim-specific and was set the kg by default.

    Can you explain ? what do you mean "Hardwaew setting" I am having issues with AMS2 fuel levels and SIM HUB Dash. I notice cars like the McClaren and Mercedes dont seem to have a Fuel level at all on the wheel ?? So Im relying on 3 different readings that all are seemingly incorrect ? I cant get it straight since the "IMPERIAL" setting in AMS2 still gives Litres on the Setup Menu and -not Sure- on the HUD . Sim Hub shows 1.3 g something at the beginning then of a session and goes hay wire part way thru a race. In the Pit I see fuel levels go up to a similar level on the Sim Hub readouts but they dont match the game readouts ? And of course certain cars refuse to read Imperial - they are still metric no matter what SIM HUB and AMS 2 settings are set to. STOCK cars, not Add ons (3rd party).
    hmmmm
