Abstract
A fuel system including a fuel container containing fluid and a water sensor. The water sensor is in at least partial fluid contact with the fluid. The water sensor has a longitudinal axis that is substantially horizontal. The water sensor is configured to sense water in the fluid at a predetermined level in the fuel container. The water sensor is further configured to sense water at the predetermined level regardless of a rotational position of the water sensor about the longitudinal axis.
