    I'll blindly guess that you have a bad throttle position sensor.

    You'll get better answers if you specify:
    year
    make
    model
    engine size
    auto or manual
    mileage
    how long has it done this? any other symptoms? is there a check engine light? etc.

    edit: Changed my mind on my blind guess. From what I read of your post you said above 1/4 throttle it bogs or jumps and dies. I take it that means it is idling ok and running ok under light throttle (only a little gas pedal). My new blind guess is that you have a failing fuel pump that is not providing adequate pressure/volume for larger throttle angles. But provide more info and we can help you better, I'm really just shooting in the dark with my guesses.

        If its got a carb, the jets should be cleaned. I had a similar problem with my Blazer except it bogged throughout the entire powerband.
