The piston must be cocked slightly in the bore. If you can figure
out which side of the piston is the further out try tapping on it
there lightly with a hammer. Once it is straight it should squeeze
back normally. You may need to open the bleed screw, and I imagine
the dust boot has come loose and will need to be re-clipped back in
place. Good luck!
