Default HELP 2004 heritage dies on throttle up

Pull the air cleaner and see if it is squirting gas down the carb throat when you twist the throttle. That is the first thing that comes to mind right off-hand. Could be something with the slide also.

I would pull it all back off and go back through it and make sure that everything is where it should be, put it all back together, set the mixture 2 turns out, and fire that bitch up.
