I figured it was maybe froma misfire at first

I've changed the plugs on the motor, that's nearly it though

I'm up on 95,000 now, when i start the car up it seems as if the exhaust give a little "put........... put" now and then

No engine codes, i can't really pinpoint it, I'd want to say clogged cat possibly? not totally certain however, looking for any other input

wires still surprisingly seem good, I haven't had any real bad response out of the motor once I move it and they're all still gettin spark, however i supposed it wouldn't hurt to change em out soon.

The fuel filter is next on the list, but I can't really see it causing what almost seems like bad flow?

idle is steady, cold starts it runs around 1k but drops to a steady 750 after a minute or so of warming up

I'll have to get a video of it sometime, especially warming up it flow fine, then a PUT enough to kick some water out of the piping, does it a few times.
