Liberty has no website.

The bubble-testing article is found in the free web-magazine, VirtualIndian: http://virtualindian.org/, edited from posts to the VI mailing list, which is very active to this day.

Problems "fixed"

Well the old girl seems to be running much better now. I ended up swapping the advance weight springs, (NOS Harley not Taiwan Tedd's) bumping the advance a degree or two (maybe there was a lot of gear lash slop?) and readjusting the carb. Not sure what "fixed" it probably a combination of all.

Thanks for the help. I'll be back for more advise when, not if, new problems arise!!
