Okay, I have to say I'm not impressed. :annoyed:

I snapped the head off a water pump bolt, and just for fun I tried the last one and snapped it off too. Hardly any pressure at all. Do I have any options worth considering?

It has to be said that I've disassembled a dozen Fieros and if a bolt won't start (no matter how big or small), you just put a bigger breaker bar on it. I've never broken one.
 
i broke a water pump bolt on an old 86 mercury capri 5.0, i tried every thing to get that dam bolt out, finally i just drilled it out and used a tap and die set for a new hole for another bolt, wasn't the best fix but it worked for a long as i had the car...
