Default 82 FXRS hit the throttle, she stalls

I have an 82 FXRS, Bone stock except for pipes. I just took it to the shop to have my carb rebuilt because of this problem (i normally do all the work on the bike except this one time ) I hit the throttle, she stalls most times, sometimes i keep the throttle right and she stays running. any idea what it could be?

Carb was rebuilt and cleaned, throttle cables new, petcock is new and has fresh gas.

First off welcome to the forum
Look on the side of the carb by the cables at the accelerator pump rod....is it in the float bowl or did the tech miss the hole?
