D Jetronic, engine dies above 1500 rpm

Greeting Forum Members,

Happy Valentine's Day.
I Just started up my sitting (3 months) 350sl after installing a new battery.
It idles beautifully, but when given throttle the engine dies right at 1500 rpm.
I know that the throttle valve controls the fuel delivery up to 1500 rpm.
What componet(s) takes over over the 1500 rpm mark?
The answer to this question should help me troubleshoot the problem.

Thanks,

Knarf
