Issue?? Vapor Lock??

Ok so this is whats been up. Its like the 3rd time in 2 weeks its happened. First off, 86 Yoda 4x4, 22rblock, 20R head and carb. Fuel Filter(s) were changed, plugs are new wires are new, distro is new rotor is new. so on. Well like 2 weeks ago i was out in the woods playing LIGHTLY, just trail riding. I was in 2wd most of the time, but I had goosed it and did a massive sand burn out just showing off, then it started, it felt like it wasnt getting enough fuel out of no where. studdering and no power. I babied it out of there, and to autozone, bought some new plugs (only 2K on old ones but why not), and got some water remover I didnt know if it was bad gas i had just gotten. After changin plugs and water remover and sitting over night, she fired right up int he mourn and ran great. Then it happened again same symtoms, i just went home with it and let it sit, fine in the am. And today my starter was being uber ghay and beat on it a little for it to start. Well after playing with it for like 15 mins she started, but was running BADDDD, i babied it home from work, every time i would lighty hit the gas it would studder badly no power and would almost stall. If I floored it, it would take off, and not studder bad at all. I got it home, checked over all the vac lines, and checked wires n crap all was ok, no leaks, just a little miss at idol, and if you hit the gas in park it would stdder like it wasnt getting fuel or spark was off IDK. I had my gurl hit the gas as I watched the sight glass to check fuel, it stayed perfect, so i wouldnt guess it would be a lack of fuel issue, but when it was running i put my hand over the carb quick, to check the spray, it poped loud and you hear the idol smooth out. I jumped in it and it ran almost perfect little hesitation at start off. Tank is full again, idk what the deal was, driving 20miles home with a super studderin truck wasnt all the much fun any ideas lol
Thanks

my first suggestion would be punctuation.
