Any tips on getting it to to stay, or could my problem be due to something else now?
I suggest Sugino KNURLED chainring bolts. The female end has these knurls that wedge into the crank arm when you install them the first time. They then stay there forever. Shimano Dura Ace and (I think) Campy Record Track have the same system. I know Dura Ace does because I have a set of those.
