Before you get a new one burn it and try again.

well it was bought like 2 years ago when i first go the car but it is still shiny and i don't drive the car so u get the idea. anyhow i guess i will try the burn idea to loosen the threads but i am sure any more pressure on it and it will snap.

ez out drill bit? how does that work exactly bore out the middle releasing much of the pressure and letting it unscrew easy or what.

no its just like a drill bit that turns the other way so if the bleeder breaks you use the easy out and it grabs the metal of the bleeder and unscrews it
