Was gas too high or too low octane?
Purge valve back by gas tank either on charcoal canister or close. Has 2 small vacuum lines on it. Small black plastic valve with electric pigtail also
Might need to reset computer, I have same year and had same issues, u have to turn the key as though turning it on but dont crank it let it sit like that 10 minutes then turn key all the way back for exactly 1 minute then turn over. That will reset ur computer and should start
I just read that on the 2013 Malibu that the purge valve is under the engine cover on top of engine
