If it's an FD then you have the screw in type pistons so you have to use a tool to turn the piston in (to the right) if you're already doing that and it won't turn then you can simultaneously use a c-clamp to squeeze the piston as you turn it. If it still won't go in it's broken and I'll sell you one
