My filler neck had a ton of rust in it. I scrubbed what I could out with a rust solvent and dryer vent brush on a drill. Is there a coating I can use on the inside to keep trash from going into my new tank?

There is a commercial zinc dipping company here that will do small jobs. Items are dipped in rust remover [acid] first then plated. Might try one local to you.

or Por 15?

I'd clean it and epoxy prime it.

good to note that any epoxy coating will need to be gasoline resistant and it will have to cure

Appliance epoxy from rustoleum says about a month, and i dont know if its gas resistant but just a random epoxy i read the can on
