Need Help!

I have a Vauxhall Astra 2005 1.6 sxi, and it is cutting out on me sometimes when it is started 1st thing (it is not that the engine is cold but as the same occuers in the middle of the day when it has been really hot), and then will not start till it has been left for 5 minutes then onces it has been warmed up it does not cut out again, but its runnings really baddly and shakes when at low speed, it is really lumpy, and it has also lost some power.

Any ideas please help!!

Sounds like the air mass sensor is playing up and is thinkin the engine is cold all of the time, hence giving the engine too much fuel for it to run properly.

But this is a pure guess.
