Default Re: bad rocker adjustment, or bad lifter?

Happens to me all the time! LOL I actually had a set of valves so poorly adjusted that when the lifters got pumped up, the engine actually quit running. DOH!

There's alot of weird forces at work on a valve train, and a nut backing itself off is not uncommon at all. That's prolly all ya did bro.

Adjust 'em back up, fire it and see what happens.
