I have replaced the reseivor and the calipers twice. The front right caliper will not release after compressed. Any suggestions?

Hey there Ussauk,
Look in the tech tips for SPOOGE HOLE!
But also, when you rebuilt the calipers, did you remove the O-ring from the caliper body, and check and clean out any corrosion you would have found inside the groove!? This can cause excessive squeeze force on the piston and won't let it slide like it should!

If TC's suggestion doesn't work, replace your brake lines. It's not uncommon for them to have the lining break free on the inside and clog the works.
