hey guys, i need some help, the nipple rusted and broke off flush with the top of the water pump. i've tried everything to get it out. and its a no go. it seems like the easy out wants to snap when i try to turn it. any ideas. the waterpump's still inside.

Personally, I'd replace the water pump, considering they are fairly inexpensive.

I think you should buy a water pump, no use in playing with broken nipples :lol2:
