I've cleaned countless motorcycle tanks.
Anything acidic will work.
Lemon juice, vinegar, etc.
Hydrochloric works best (muriatic acid).
It will make very quick work of rust in a steel tank. You then have to rinse, and neutralize with a base (baking soda works) and then get a light coating of oil or similar on the metal to prevent flash Rusting.
