This problem is a bit tricky to diagnose, as there are several components in the fuel evap system that can cause this issue.

It's actually pretty easy to diagnose. All you have to do is pinch off the rubber part of the evap hose right at the throttle body then if the car starts easily there's no Whistling noise and if it is easy to fill the gas tank, then it's probably the EVAP valve.
