After adjusting the valves and test drive it. The nuts become loose and fall off the drive train.

Hello, I'm Danny.

Those are locking nuts. They are to be only used once. Any time a valve adjustment is made you need to purchase a new set for that reason. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
