It means that the fuel in gasoline station was mixed with water or water somehow got in gasoline stations or your cars fuel tank.
To get it out you can buy some special chemicals which collect water from your diesel in tank, and then burns it with diesel mixed ;)
Now if your talking about the idiot light that says water in fuel means need to change fuel filter. sensor on bottom of cap to fuel filter is touching the metal inside filter. all fuel has moister in it. The filter is a fuel separator.

Anything that can be burned to run a diesel engine.
Diesel fuel is hygroscopic and absorbs water. It's not unusual for diesel vehicles to have water in the fuel. Use a fuel conditioner and water remover, and use the water separator drain if it has one.
The main thing that happens when there is water in diesel fuel is that it will burn poorly or maybe not even at all. It will also sink to the bottom of the fuel tank.
Water is attracted to diesel fuel. Moisture in the air gets in there. That's why you need the special filters for this.
The bi-products of diesel fuel are water and glycerin. These are commonly removed from the fuel during the process of refinery.
water sensor has malfunctioned/or fuel has large quantity of water contamination.
A 1998 Ram with the Cummins diesel has a water in fuel indicator on the dash that will illuminate if there is water in the fuel filter housing.
No, a water filter will not remove the dye from red diesel.
