I went to switch out the water leveler and the second I tried to turn it it broke off and now the threaded part is still in the pipe in the ground. How in the world do I get that out?
TIA

Something like this should work.


If the handle is too long, then this...

 
Happened to my dad last week with the pressure gauge in his filter housing. Use an Internal pipe wrench to take it out.
 
Maybe an "easy out" or screw extractor type of tool or a pipe nipple extractor? Find one that fits snuggly into the old broken part you already removed. Then carefully insert into the stuck fitting and carefully unscrew it.

Thank you!!!! I bought these and it crumbled it’s way out !
