Fuel Flow makes no sense

This doesn't happen all the time, but every few flights I've noticed that the fuel flow gauge will show a different usage for each engine even at identical power settings. To get them to equal each other you have to practically full rich one engine while starving the other. This has got to be a bug, right?

I think this should simulate differences in real-world engines.

Edit: Oh, misread your post ... having one at full rich while starving the other is a bit more than I have seen.

If it is a "bug" then it is in the sim engine. FF is simply reporting what the sim calculates.
