Default Sagging engine insulation

Anyone with experience fixing a sagging engine insulation? Spray adhesive? Just not sure if it would hold with the temps…thanks

I would try 3M Super 77 spray adhesive. (Read can first to see if it mentions temperature application limits)

thanks. Looks like it’s “Heat resistant up to 110 F (43 C)”

I have it (or had it). I just pushed it back up using a broom handle... it stuck and hasn't come back down.

Peace

I remember using Rubber Cement glue on my 911SC insulation - Only product that worked but that was 30 years ago.
Haven't had engine insulation issues on the later 993/996/997's
