I haven't ever seen or even heard of a lifter causing problems then "fixing" itself to this extent. I've seena lot of them that won't hold pressure enough that they are running on basically a 0 lash setting(ticking off and on). But haven't seen them collapse enough to cause a problem then come back.
Have you changed the oil filter lately? Saw one instance where something in the new filter blocked the oil, dropped pressure and made the fella change his shorts.
Was there any noise associated with the pressure drop and is it a mechanical guage or electrical? Maybe a electrical short problem, oil was fine but read wrong, short caused a ignition problem?
