Problem with 1994 Cavalier dying not getting any gas

After driving my car for a while it will jerk then start to slow down until it dies. The gas pedal will go all the way to the floor without giving any gas. It also makes a whining sound from under the car not under the hood and the whining sound gets louder when I roll up or down the power windows and turn the turn signal on. I think its the fuel pump but everybody tells me it's not because the car still runs it just dies then starts back up after a few minutes but it keeps dying until I let it sit for about an hour. Do you have any idea what it might be please help me

Does the car have cruse control? When you use the power windows, wipers, and turn signals, do they go faster than before? Are you sdalton19? Did you run over a robot lately? If I were you I would call ghostbusters. I have never heard of a gas pedal just going down by it's self unless the return spring broke.
If this isn't a joke, go to the honda forum and pm losone, he has 40 years under the hood!

Could be a broken or frozen cable that connects the pedel to the throttle body or carb. Have you checked the trans fluid. Sounds like you have two problems
