We tried a capacitance type but it was not very reliable, any water/
condensation caused it to short out (the HF sensing signal) and read full
scale, changes in fuel density caused false readings so we never really
trusted it.
Tony K has developed a good one, using bar graph LED display, I am also
working on the same type of device (and loosely with him) . By the time you
are ready to use one it will certainly be available.
