Thanks..something is definitely wrong. The car has been sitting quite some time with a flat so I will check the brakes again when I order a new tire. I'llclean everything and lube where needed I guess.
I'm forgetting which car I had to position the rear piston because of a detent that matches the pad.
I know my 81 pontiac has it. The piston gets pushed in, then rotated so the notch is at the top, the brake pad notch sits in it,,then you crank the parking brake to drive the piston out.
I believe that method of pin/detent is because the piston relies on the parking brake to "unscrew" the piston out. So it keeps it from spinning. Weird.
