I pulled out the MAF to clean it a month or two back but the rubber boot doesn't seal tight enough and stay in place anymore.

Every few weeks or so it slips out of place and the car seems ot run rough when it does.

Any tricks or solutions to get it to stay in?

On my 95 there is a small (narrower then a regular hose clamp) clamp that holds the MAF in place. Note in picture how it compares with a regular hose clamp in the lower left of the picture.

that is not the MAF in the picture,, it is the IAT, inlet air temp,,, and i can't see why it would need a clamp,it has vacuum holding it in, and it's long,,,
