<p>The device comprises a baseplate (10) intended to be fixed onto one wall of the reservoir, a support (30) articulated around a horizontal axis (34) on the part of the baseplate (10) which is internal to the reservoir, a slider (40) carried at the lower extremity of the support (30) in such a way that the slider (40) rests against the bottom of the reservoir, a resistive element (20) carried by the support (30), a float (50) carried by an arm (60) which is articulated around a non-verticle axis (62) on the support in order to follow the fuel level, and a cursor carried by the arm (60) and resting on the resistive element in order to define a resistance which is variable as a function of the level of liquid contained in the reservoir, characterised by the fact that the geometry of the slider is such that whatever the position of the bottom of the reservoir, by reason of possible deformation of the reservoir, when the fuel level corresponds to the same minimum measurable height, the arm (60) of the float always occupies the same relative position with respect to the support (30).
