Anyone else had a problem keeping the brass bar in place? Mine falls out after a few throttle snaps and I loose pump shot and syphon fuel after shut down. Called Holley but no help. Open to ideas I’ve torn the carb off 10+ times chasing my tail on this.

They were only staked in to begin with. So I would take a center punch and stake it in again.

What Holley carb do you have ? One of my Holleys is 10 years old the other 12 and I've never had that issue.

1850-2 bought remaned from king carbs in 2017. Double tapped both sides with a center punch seemed to do the trick. Just needed a push of the ledge before hitting my Holley with a hammer. Two thumbs up
