Bob,
I used a portable electric compressor. Just remove
the bleeder screw & jam the nozzle(with a blower
attachment...something that concentrates the air)
Be sure to put a thin block of wood between the 2
pistons as they may come flying out of the caliper.
Wouldn't want to injure yourself. Once you get them
hitting the block of wood you should be able to work
them the rest of the way out.
Good luck,
Todd Bermudez
