It's pretty simple and logical.
It just refers to the various preceding lyrics, e.g.
"I'll never forget the way you feel right now ..."
"I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way tonight ..."
"I'll never do it better than I do it with you ..."
"I'll never stop dreaming of you every night of my life ..."
In addition, the female vocalist identifies two other things that the lead singer denies that he will do: "You'll see that it's time to move on" and "You'll be screwing around." To both of these, the lead singer emphatically responds, "I won't do that! No, I won't do that!"
The song's writer, Jim Steinman states that the definition of "that" is fully revealed in the song in each of the several verses in which it is mentioned.
Although I like the ketchup one...mmmmmmm...

[Girl:] After a while you'll forget everything
It was a brief interlude and a midsummer night's fling
And you'll see that it's time to move on
[Meatloaf:] I won't do that! No I won't do that!
[Girl:] I know the territory, I've been around
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
And sooner or later, you'll be screwing around
[Meatloaf:] I won't do that! No I won't do that!
Anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no I won't do that
** So he wont screw around, and he wont see its time to move on....

Leave her or cheat on her.
Girl:
After a while you'll forget everything
It was a brief interlude
And a midsummer night's fling
And you'll see that it's time to move on
Boy:
I won't do that!
I won't do that!
Girl:
I know the territory, I've been around
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
And sooner or later, you'll be screwing around
Boy:
I won't do that! No I won't do that!
Anything for love, oh I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but I won't do that, no I won't do that.

Skippy say the lyrics give you the answer.
Very end of song
Girl:
After a while you'll forget everything
It was a brief interlude
And a midsummer night's fling
And you'll see that it's time to move on
Metaloaf:
I won't do that!
I won't do that!

He won't eat a corned beef sandwich with horseradish whilst pogoing on a tightrope over Niagara Falls. That's what I think he means.

He never intended to give you that answer. He lets the listener come up with her own answer. After "Farmer in the Dell" it may be the best interactive song ever written.

He is trying to convince his girl that their love will last &
he won't cheat on her. She has probably has had cheating
boyfriend(s) before & doesn't want to go thru it again.
Tough position to be in & such words may not be enough for someone who has been burned badly in a prior relationship.
Time, patience and gaining trust is the best way to proceed, imho.
=============================================
And I would do anything for love
I'd run right into hell and back
I would do anything for love
I'll never lie to you and that's a fact
But I'll never forget the way you feel right now-
Oh no - no way-
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
I won't do that
Anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
I won't do that
Some days it don't come easy
Some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all
And these are the days that never end
Some nights you're breathing fire
Some nights you're carved in ice
Some nights your like nothing I've ever seen before
Or will again
Maybe I'm crazy
But it's crazy and it's true
I know you can save me
No one else can save me now but you
As long as the planets are turning
As long as the stars are burning
As long as your dreams are coming true-
You beter believe it!-
That I would do anything for love
And I'll be there until the final act-
I would do anything for love!
And I'll take a vow and seal a pact-
But I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way-
Tonight-
I would do anything for love!
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
I won't do that....
I would do anything for love
Anything you been dreaming of
But I just won't do that...
Somedays I pray for silence
Somedays I pray for soul
Somedays I just pray to the God of sex and guns and Rock 'N Roll
Some nights I lose the feeling
Some nights I lose control
Some nights I lose it all when I watch you dance and the thunder rolls
Maybe I'm lonely
And that's all I'm qualified to be
There's just one and only
]The one and only promise I can keep
As long as the wheels are turning
As long as the fires are burning
As long as your prayers are coming true-
You better believe it- !
That I would do anything for love
And you know it's true and that's a fact
I would do anything for love!
And there'll never be no turning back-
But I'll never do it better than I do it with you
So long-
So long-
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
I won't do that...
I would do anything for love
Anything you been dreaming of
But I just won't do that...
But I'll never stop dreaming of you
Every night of my life-
No way-
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
I won't do that!

Will you help me down?
Will you get me right out of this Godforsaken town?
Will you make it all a little less cold?
*Boy*

Will ya hose me down with holy water- if I get too hot-?

*Girl*
After a while you'll forget everything
It was a brief interlude
And a mid-summer nights fling
And you'll se that it's time to move on
*Boy*
I won't do that!
I won't do that!
*Girl*
I know the territory - I've been around
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
And sooner or later, you'll be screwing around
*Boy*
I won't do that!
I won't do that!
Anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that

Meatloaf when he says He won't do that is he would not cheat on her
