Rust? If theres any rust, you might as well get a new fuel tank. The undercoating should protect the fuel tank for a very long time. Unless somebody stripped it, there shouldn't be a need to clean it. However, check NAPA or something. They may have an additive for your fuel, kinda like injector cleaner, but I doubt it.

its plastic how does it rust? at least im pretty sure its plastic
anyway the only real way to clean it is to do whats called hot tanking. you need to remove the tank and bring it to a capable shop. usually radiator shops have the ability.

92-00 civics are steel tanks. 01+ civics are plastic.
