I've never used POR 15, so I hope it's not thick enough to plug up 
the very small passage in that tank that you need for things to work 
correctly. If they're now plugged, you'll run out of gas once you get 
down to about 1/2 tank.

Note that new tanks are bare inside and don't need anything there to 
keep them from rusting, as long as you keep the water out. The broken 
overflow hose is the culprit. Once it cracks, wheelspray throws water 
in there and rust in the gas tank will soon be the least of your 
problems.

I make and sell kits to repair that broken overflow hose. If you 
haven't fixed yours some other way, you'll need one of them.

Yes, the silicone brake fluid is great stuff if properly used.
