Turning it did nothing on its own...and the haynes manual is quite vague sometimes.
What happened was....the piston compressed back into the cylinder fairly easily...but instead of the outer piston staying where it was it slid with the other piston and pushed out the back. Not entirely...but enough, and thats why theres fluid leaking. What i need to do, is find a way to line up and get that outer piston back in...but its hard to with pressure in the brakes.
Since im supposed to be turning it also...seems that might be whats hanging this process up?
