The Falcon is my kid's DD and she neglected to inform me that the brakes had begun sounding like a garbage disposal choking on a fork; I discovered this when I had to drive it this week. New rotors and pads acquired and I set to work on the driver side, which was not without its own bugaboos and involved a breaker bar, a torch, and a lot of swearing.
So everything is apart, cleaned, etc. ready to go back together and I go to push the piston back with a c-clamp (using the remnant of the old pad)... nada. Thing will. not. budge. Can't say I'm surprised tbh.
Bleeder valve open just a hair to let fluid out to allow compression. Drippage but no movement of the piston.
Hit it with P'Blaster.
...I'm guessing I have to go find a pair of reman in the morning. I don't think these have enough life left in them to bother rebuilding, they've seen too many Massachusetts winters.
