" I had to turn on the elect pump to keep from vapor locking the last 1/4 mile"

Did the engine just try to quit running or did it make a rather shallow kind of pup - pup - pup -pup sound????

If it made the pup-pup-pup sound then it might be a lean running condition in addition to the vapour lock. Otherwise it's just a vapour lock condition.
