tests:
1. Run the engine for one or two minutes, and then stop it. If the pedal

Blow compressed air slowly from the connecting portion of the brake hose to pull
out the
piston and the
piston boots.handle of a plastic hammer and adjust the height
of the two pistons while pumping in air slowly so
that the pistons protrude evenly. Do not remove one piston completely before
trying to remove the other piston, because it will
become impossible to remove the second piston. Blow air little by little to remove the piston. The
piston will pop out if a force of air is applied
suddenly.
