you may have something with the starter motor if it wont crank. have it checked to verify

the cutting off may be due to plugs, wires, coil or some wiring issue. there are common issue with the harness for the cam sensor and crank sensor.

then i would let a shop do at least the diag for you to determine the failure. it will be well worth the money.
