Sounds like the IAC (idle air control) valve may not be functioning properly. It is in the throttle body. I would start by removing and thoroughly cleaning the throttle body. See if that helps.

the main thing this car will do is when u rev up it will go up to 4000 then drop right out have to control gas pedle to get rpms up any ideas?

Like Kyle said, concentrate first on the IAC and throttle body.
