    Yes, interesting idea - passing current through the petrol (or at least trying to!).

    Automotive fuel tanks have a rehostat in the tank operating at 12 volts, so explosion is apparently not a concern at low current. You could modify an automotive sensor (float and rehostat), and use a digital voltmeter for display.
