They screw in. I've never done it, but do a search and you should find all you need to know.

Mine seized up and I had to get a new one. Just take off your Master Cylinder lid and you should be able to push it back in.

 

i'll try that, i hope it's not sezied but by the looks of it i think it is thanks for the help.

 

You CAN"T just push those pistons back in, they screw in. You can rent a tool for that at Auto Zone or the like but it will help you out a lot with getting the pistons back in, you can't just pop the master lid off and get them to go in that way.

All I ever use to turn them back in is a pair of needle nose pliers. You can buy a tool for about $10 to do it but I never ever realy needed it.

By trying to squeeze them in without turning, you may have damaged them.
