An example apparatus for aligning a pressure tapping tool includes a base having an engagement portion. The engagement portion engages a component to limit relative movement between the base and the component. At least one guide mounts adjacent the base. Positioning a pressure tapping tool against the guide aligns the pressure tapping tool for pressure tapping the component. An example method of pressure tapping a component includes limiting relative movement between a fixture and a component and guiding a tool along a fixture when pressure tapping the component. The example may include guiding the tool along different portions of the fixture to pressure tap different portions of the component.
