Toyota did not use 1/8 NPT on the 22R engine!

Toyota used 1/8 BSPT. 1/8 NPT is not compatible with 1/8 BSPT. I had to build an adaptor to get my 1/8 NPT oil pressure gage to fit the 22r engine. Included are a few of the engine components utilizing 1/8 BSPT. I hope this alleviates someone's frustration.

You can also purchase those adapters. I've used several "metric" to NPT adapters over the years.
 
Do not use a degreaser containing lye or other metal hydroxide on aluminum!

These ingredients will eat/react with your nice aluminum parts. UGLY! These wheels were purchased this way. Good deal on the Dunlop tires though.
I wonder if that is a common product- I got a similarly corroded set of rims cheap for rollers
