An apparatus and method is provided for detecting the level, composition, and temperature of a liquid fuel stored in a tank on a vehicle, as well as the tank pressure, and for transmitting this data via a multiplex bus to a central vehicle computer. The apparatus for collecting liquid fuel level data comprises first capacitive sensing means located within the fuel tank for storing a charge proportional to a full liquid level, second capacitive sensing means located within the tank for storing an instant liquid level charge proportional to the instant liq...
