One of the sound-insulation panels in the engine room of my H44 has fallen off. I tried reattaching it using rubber cement, but that failed, probably due to the fairly high temperature in the engine room. Any suggestions on what glue to use?

When I replaced mine 2 years ago I didn't want to trust just the adhesive so I got some plastic inserts (hollow 3/4inch tubes), screws and washers. Punch some holes with a pencil, push in insert, run screw with fender washer through insert into plywood. The plastic inserts kept the screw from grabbing the foam and twisting.

Hey Larry,

One of the one foot square panels on my H34 felll off about six months ago. I used Gorilla Glue and it hasn't fallen off again.

Good luck.
