If one supply tank sensor was faulty, reporting let's say a full supply tank when it was nearly empty, what might the display 46/75/0 be diagnosed as? Leaking supply tank?

As you can't select which tank the pumps feed, would you not turn the transfer pumps off as a precaution to prevent any more loss, and then be prepared to fly and land with the single engine remaining and its 46kg?

Also, it would not be a surprise when the first engine flamed out indeed you would be expecting it.
