T.McMillan Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 My hope trial brake has got one sticky piston, it doesn't move at all its the opposite piston that moves so no matter how i align the disc the opposite piston constantly pushes against the disc, anybody got any tips of how to free up the piston and oil it or even take them out? thanks in advance tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawnmowerman Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 Take your pads out, shove a bit of oil in there and pump away. You're best off wedging the good piston so the siezed one will have all the power and break the seal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Garland Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 When you have sorted it with all the oil make sure no residue is left so it cannot contaminate the pads or rotor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
