Low Power

I hadn't driven my 92 SL 500 for a week or 2. I got in and started it this a.m. and I need to nearly mat it to get going from a stop. Far from the exhilarating power I'm used to. At first it felt like a linkage issue, but now I'm thinkin' fuel filter, pump issue . . ?? Any thoughts?

Turned out to be a throttle cable - it was nearly severed. Replaced it and back to normal
