Brake fluid squirting out

[MuZiZZle]

if I had no pads in one of the rear calipers and pressed the pedal down, if it travelled enough would fluid squirt out? or would the seal need to be split for said fluidzzzz to squirt out?

thanking you please

Depends how much the piston can move, it'll either hit the disk or pop the piston out and neither is what you want.
Why do you want to drive it with no pads in?

lolololol! Would be a longgg stretch i think to split the seal..

Take the wheel off and look?

But if there is puddles of fluid under the car, probs has happened..

meh, it's just sat outside my place all bagged up so it doesn't leak, I was just curious to know why it would be leaking when I press the pedal as I'm sorting it at the weekend

I run super lightweight y0, so no jack!

Yeah might have torn it or its come so so far that the seal isn't doing its job as its folded over etc. New seal time I reckon or just get another caliper from somewhere, will be pennies

well I have some spare ones anyway, and the beam was off the other month so hopefully everything isn't seized on
