[T3] Removing Pistons from Brake Calipers - Front Disc


Hi All,

A quick question regarding front brake calliper piston removal.  I'm (it's)
stuck.  I've pulled the caliper's apart from ('71) Square.  Pads were shot.
But Pistons don't move.  Pulled off outer clip and Dust cover.  Had been
removed from car before I got them (old parts car needing TLC - ain't
getting it though.  Rusted to the point of scrap metal what's left).  What I
need to know is how I can get the Piston's out of the caliper's themselves.
Trying to 're-furbish' for another vehicle that was cracked in an accident.
Very corroded and stuck.  My books say compressed air.  I don't have
compressed air unfortunately.  Any suggestions?

Regards,
