Best glue for under the hood, MAF sensor.
So, I have an aftermarket MAF, I had one replaced under warranty, but the 2nd one did the same thing.
The insert is glued in and pops out.
Bought some glue thats supposed to be for automotive applications, but
reading the label it's only good up to 150F.
And the intake temp can easily exceed that.
Can someone recommend a strong glue that will hold up under boost pressure, vibration and also heat?

Loctite 5 minute Epoxy is good to 302F for short term exposure, 120F for long term exposure. I would consider operating temperatures while driving the car to be short term as it will cool to below 120F when parked.
