Odd Running Problem

Old Time Jeeper
It's sunny and mix 70's here. I just got home and the jeep ran fine. So I needed to take one more trip tonight. So I take off, everything is fine. I get to the turn lane and go around the corner. I feel the jeep lean as I get around the corner and straighten out the wheel and as soon as I straighten out it looses power and dies. So I coast into a lot, park and turn the engine over and it starts. But something's not right. It idles fine but as soon as you crack the throttle it wants to act like it's running out of gas but them let off the throttle and it idles again. So I just let it idle for a few minutes. I drop the hood, get in and press the throttle and now it revs up fine. Was this a vapor lock? I've not had this happen before on anything I've ever drove. Fuel pump, carb, sending unit and fuel filter have all been replaced recently.
