2002 cavalier. Intermittently won't start.

Try looking at the fuel filter, it might be partly clogged or just clogged.Locate the fuel filter, disconnect it and (I know this sounds strange) blow through it, if you get resistance of any kind, then it's bad, if it blows completely through with NO resistance at all, then it's good.

Getting Code p0113 which causes the car to hesitate and also shift hard. 2.2L ecotec motor.

I would check a sensor called the mass air flow sensor its located in the intake stream before the air gets to the intake air temperature . Its baslcly the first sensor the computer use's to control the vehicle . It is expensive how ever some times it can be cleaned you can by mass air flow sensor cleaner for about 10 bucks dosn't always work but if it is bad t5heir is a huge recore for it like 80 ti 100 dollars so don't through it away.
