[DeTomaso] girling calipers - rebuild

plowed ahead anyway - stuck at trying to get the pistons out - as there are two, once one pops out, there is nothing to stop the airflow in order to build pressure to pop the other one out - on the half caliper that to which the hose does NOT hook, i was able to use various fingers to plug holes and so got both pistons out on that one - but the half that has the hose hook up has too many holes to plug - any thoughts on how to get the other piston out?
 
thanks!

hi all - happy new year!
 
here is an interesting link for rebuilding a girling caliper
 
http://www.e30tech.com/forum/showthread.php?t=39965
 
but i don't know how close this model is to ours
 
does anyone have a link to a rebuild of our actual caliper (similar to this link, with pictures and how to)?
 
also, what is the part number for the recommended replacement pad (porterfield, right?)
 
thanks and best to all for 2012
