Ok, thanks to this stupid crappy weather SH1 between my house and work is 4wd spec flooded, I have a fuel injected mk2 golf, and whist driving through the water the car lost power, pulled over to the side of the road and restarted it, it ran fine, reved cleanly etc, for the first 3-5 seconds and then promptly resumed running on 1 and having no power. I waited 5 or so minutes and it cleared up so I figure that it's just water in the electrics, but I thought it was odd that for the first 5 seconds it would run fine, anyone want to have a guess as to what was going on? I don't want a full break down because its fine now, but I'm just curious as to why it would run for a bit then not.
