Check your air filter...I finally got my car to do it when a mechanic was around and found that the air filter was dirty and the car was trying to suck air from in around the air box and that was making the whining noise and choking the engine that's why it wouldn't run when it acted up!! Hope this helps...it's a cheap easy fix..and it probably needs done anyway...but it fixed mine!!
