Default Very intermittant pickup problem

Ive had my scooby for 2 months now and apart from a new radiator its been fine. Its an 02 bugeye done 80k. The rad was replaced when I had it serviced on 28/12.

Noticed once over the very cold xmas period that it was very slow to pickup when accelerating and kangarood a bit. Only happened once and lasted about 30 minutes, so I put it down to being very cold .

The the other evening I went to go somewhere and it happened again. Not the kangarooing but the very slow pickup. Im not banging the excelerator down, just gently apply pressure. After about 15 mins it seemed ok again. The weather has been no where near as cold so it must be something else.

Dont think it major as its only done it twice, but I would like to try to get the bottom of the problem and get it sorted.

Any ideas greatly received.

cheers

Ian
