I could be reading this wrong but I would suspect that you are possibly looking for 1/4" npt.
The measurement of the external 1/8 npt is 0.405" so there for the measurement of the internal hole would have to be smaller (2x depth of
thread)
1/8" npt has an internal measurement of 11/32" (0.34" or 8.7mm)
1/4" npt has an internal measurement of 15/32" (0.47" or 11.9mm)
Sorry if I've picked you up wrong.

Also gut feeling is that 1/8" npt would be too small for a fuel system unless it was for a gauge or something similar.
Again sorry if I'm barking up the wrong tree.
Cheers
