I was able to get it sorted out with help from Andy at MATCO. The airplane had
been sitting up for a number of years and the piston was stuck in the cailper
not letting the fluid through. Andys's tip was to close the bleeder nipple and
shoot shop air in the exit hole to the reservoir. It took some messing with
but it finally forced the piston out. I cleaned it all up and checked the O
ring then reassembled the brake and serviced it. It works and no leaks (yet).
good tip and service from MATCO, thanks Andy.
