Sensitivity of S4 AFM to heat..

As I posted in another thread, I am cleaning/painting alot of the engine parts for my T2 swap. I painted my AFM, but am a little hesitant on baking it. Would anyone happen to have experience with this? I bake at 250* for about 3-4 hours. I know there is some plastic inside of the AFM, but it is hard plastic, and wasnt sure if it would melt or not. I have a spare S4 N/A AFM that I was thinking of experimenting with, but would rather not destroy a prefectly good AFM, if someone already had tried this before.. Thanks

I am sure it would be safe at 200F, but I don't know if I would try 250F.

All the under hood plastic survives 200F all the time.

Dude, You don't need to bake at 250........
