    Replacing brake lines, master cylinders and fluid and I want to check and clean out the calipers.

    I can't get the pistons out. Any tricks?

    I've already drained the fluid and removed all the bits so I can't pump them out.

    Compressed air? (compressor)

     Be VERY careful if using compressed air. It will go fucking BANG and bounce around your shed (don't ask how I know this . . . )

    umm...I'm lacking in the compressor department so its not an option.
