because you don't push it back
you screw it back in.
get a big head flat head screwdrive and screw in, clockwise it should be.
lol.
i hope you didn't damage the piston when you tried using a clamp and what not.

Also make sure the line the groove in the piston is lined up with the nipple on the backing plate of the pad once you have wound it in.
