So im changing my front brakes today(rotors,pads),everything going fine,until brake pads installation.The caliper wont open to let me fit the brake pads,and i tried everything to push it open.what should i do???I havent removed the caliper yet.............should i remove it and try force it open?

here are some more details on the car.Car has been sitting since 2002.original orange paint,a little faded.Body is straight.No rust under hatch,floors look to be clean too.Interior is in good condition,rip on the drivers seat.Original engine/tranny.Only thing changed here are the carbs(to round ones).Here is the link to pictures. http://public.fotki.com/glebka/72_240z/

Hello,im new to this forum,and Z's overall.I just got this 1972 z with L28 engine swap.I have dual SU carburators,and dont know anything at all about carbs.Well,i was driving the car for a week(and was really enjoying it :knockedou ),BUT then it happened to rain in los angeles,and something happened.The car would drive really rough first,then its stopped going over 3k rpms at all.I stopped to check whats up,opened the hood,and saw that one of the carbs is leaking gasoline pretty bad(one thats closer to a driver).When i stepped on the gas,the leaking would stop,but would start again when car is on idle.I tried checking all ignition stuff,plugs look ok,car got new wires,EL dizzy........What could it be,did the carb went bad?Well,thanx in advance.
