On tick over the revs are all over the place dropping as low as 200rpm, and when driving feels like a big loss of power, 1 min oit will be fine then next its as if it has no spark when driving any ideas? Could it be crankshaft or cam shaft sensor?

I've checked the timing, swapped crankshaft sensor and camshaft sensor still no joy! And I tried plugging it into a diagnostics machine but it won't read my ecu just says communication error, but the eml light is not on :/

Cleaning the AFM doesn't normally sort the problem, run the car with it unplugged and see if the problem gets worse and stays the same.
