I fly a 1945 Aeronca Champ. It has a single 13-gallon fuel tank that
sits above my legs on the cabin side of the firewall. If there is a
leak, I will feel it smell it.
The Champ has no electrical system, so it cannot power a computer.
I plan for 4-gallons/hour, but in actuality, it burns 3.5 to 3.75 gph.
The most fuel I have put in at one fillup was 12 gallons.
