Default Need Advice EA CFI

My EA is really sick and was wondering if anyones experienced the same problem. (Shes got the CFI motor not multi). When I start her she revs really high, up to about 3500rpm, then down to under 1000 (almost stalling), then up again etc etc. At first I thought it was either the TPS or the ITS. Turns out it was neither of them and am now thinking its the injectors. How do I find out for sure without spending too much $? Please help a girl who doesnt know what to do next without getting ripped off.

dizzy, possibly the MAP, maybe the power steering switch, or ECU.

I am guessing it's a 3.9CFI 3 speed auto?

Unfortunately it is the 3.9CFI 3spd.
This has been going on for a while. Ive just about given up on her, which is a shame coz shes beautiful, straight body, immaculate interior but the CFI and 3spd auto is the biggest let down.
Its not a problem with the fuel system.
Id like the motor & trans from my EB put in the EA. Dont know what to do.
HELP!
Samantha.

Also, I LOVE the EA2BA, it looks so hot, beautifully done.

And the ED Sprint, well I just want one!
(I think thats the HSV phrase isnt it?)

I have to be able to get one really good car out of my 2 average ones, surely. The EA's got the body and the EB's got the soul!
