Diesel fuel tends to deposit an insulating coating on surfaces it contacts. A probe, preferably in the form of a siphon tube, is coupled to a detection circuit which is responsive to either low resistance or high capacitance between the probe and ground. The probe is initially uncoated to make a resistive coupling to a fuel container when accumulated water touches the probe. When insulating deposits from the diesel fuel or other fuel oil coat the probe, capacitive coupling will occur between the probe and the accumulated water. In either case the presence of water triggers an output signal by the detection circuit.
