Rust only happens in there when there is water with the gas. If you 
don't have much rust, I'd leave it alone and just fix the source of 
the problem which is bound to be the overflow hose on the rear side 
of the filler pipe. These are almost always cracked and they will 
leak gas out and wheel spray (water) in.

Properly cared for tanks almost never rust out, so you should just 
stick to fixing the problem, not the symptom.
