if meter was turned on side gas flow rate be same and dial would slow down or is this just crap that polish plumber told me today
 
you do have to wonder how they get away with putting something so dangerous up on a public site like you tube the worlds gone mad
 
round here the 'jeremy kyle' candidates use a simpler method of spragging the meter. basically the dial turns under impetus from the bellows mechanism, they just undo the couplings drop a screwdriver in which prevents the bellows opening and closing and therefore the meter spinning but the gas still comes through.

a couple of em got caught 'cos the meter was outside on same wall as flue outlet!! boiler pumping out flue gases and meter not spinning.... d'oh!
 
by what percentage, do you know?

For domestic situations it wont be significant.

You could calculate it using the combined gas laws i.e pv/t where p=pressure v = volume and t = tempurature

Some larger volume installations employ temperature correction devices to standardise the readings.
 
I think its abit sad nicking gas especially if you have a job ,worse still if your a gas engineer imho
