I have a 2002 cobalt 226 with a 6.2 mpi and a bravo 3 outdrive. I replaced the spark plugs with no problem. Now I want to replace the cap and rotor. I removed the cap with no problem, but I am having trouble removing the rotor. It is either stuck or do I need a special tool to remove it???

The factory puts the original one on with Loctite...you may need to break it to get it off or use a big pair of channel locks and give it a yank.
No Loctite needed on the new one...

Thank You, I'll give that a try. I just didn't want to break any thing.

Unfortunately, this is one thing you'll end up breaking.
