4th would be using more.
although the load at the tires would be the same, as a result of the gearbox ratios the load on the engine would be a lot greater for 4th gear than for 1st gear, so 4th would use more fuel.
if the load was adjusted for the gear ratios, in theory 1st and 4th would use identical amounts of fuel (apart from the frictional and centrifugal forces generated by the wheels and internal components between gearbox and dyno)
