You have a 1988 ford turbo coupe you tried to put new brake pads in and found that you can't push the caliper piston in so that the pads will fit the around the rotor?

Yes, that's always a problem with disk brake calipers. I use a large "C" clamp to bring the caliper piston back. Just tighten it slowly and it shouldn't be much trouble. Those things are really annoying sometimes but if you just work the clamp slowly and don't get impatient it should work well for you.

How do you replace brake rotors on a 1994 Honda Accord 2 door coupe?
take the caliper off and hang it to keep from breaking the brake line. there should be some clips on 2 of the studs. you can break them off with some dykes or break them off with a srewdriver or chisel and hammer. you will need a impact wrench with a Phillips head. they're about $20 or so. you loosen the screw and take it out. the rotors should just pull right off.
