Not all are rusty, some are loaded with dried gas/oil residue. And some have had the misfortune to have been coated with the junk known a Kreem. I use muriatic acid to remove rust.It does not eat good metal if there is rust to eat, and it only takes a few minutes to remove heavy deposits. Just get it out as soon as the rust is dissolved. The other cleaners and sealer I use are from the POR-15 company. I’ve cleaned/sealed over 60 motorcycle tanks.
