150k miles. Clean, dry engine and smooth auto tranny. Quiet exhaust. I cleared a P0455 evap code Gas cap looks to be a newer replacement. Plan on installing newer radio. Don't know much vehicle history. Starts quickly on key turn but maybe 1 out of 10 starts will be "slow" and act like it's flooded but start.
I will soon have mechanic do a review and check plugs, get on a lift, etc. Any advise on what to pay attention to?
I have 04 Vue with same engine.

23 years Cav. vs 4 years on the Cobalt, not including the ignition switch safety issue on the Cobalt.
I've owned two Cavs and the only big issue I ever had was the fuel pump going south at 163,000 miles.

It was the fuel pump that went out. Just acted like it was running out of gasoline and died. Damn fuel tank was over 3/4 full, so without
a hoist it was a chore replacing the pump. Just got old and worn out. Sure wish they had a way to change it through the trunk, but I can
understand how much extra money that would add to the price of a vehicle, so no big deal and no blame on Chevrolet or General Motors.
