MasterI don't have enough information from your question to give you a really good answer, so I recommend finding a MBZ specialist to diagnose it for you.
You may have a carbon fouled throttle body, if you want to check that and clean it, that's a good place to start.
If you want to find a specialist, here's a directory link for you:

Related to the throttle body, it is in good shape because whenever I open the Intake Air housing to clean the air filter I very often look and inspect the throttle and make sure it is clean and open fully at the max push of gas pedal.
Let me say it this way, when I say a cut off fuel I do not mean really cut of fuel, no, I just tried to give you an example. When I remove my foot from the gas pedal, the engine is still at idle speed . When I remove my foot, it looks like as if I turn the ignition switch off and when I put back it looks like as if I turn ignition switch back on.
