The fact that it either bottomed out, or was hard to screw in, means you are going to have a tough time with it. Make a guide, or a jig, or pay someone else to deal with it like others have said. The fact that the old one was tough coming out, and the one that snapped was tough going in means the threads were damaged somehow.
If it makes you fell better, I probably would have broken off a tap trying to clean the threads for the new stud.
