accelerator pump linkage help

can some body tell me if my accelerator pump linkage is correct. i have always had a dead spot issue starting out from a dead stop and yesterday it left dead on the road. had to have friend pull me home luckily i was less then a half mile from home. with the linkage the way in the picture it is not spraying any gas out but just a trickle. should my linkage be in the upper hole in the last pic?
