well rich is could be from the fact it could have been sitting for a while without being started up in the cold, or from the gas not having been treated while be stored for the winter, all of these could explain the puttering and the long start up. aa for the exhaust you probaly have an whole in your exhaust. i hope that this helps you.

When was the last tune-up? Most cars should get a full tune-up every two years. Well - part of a tune-up is changing the spark plugs, & maybe the distributor.
I would have to hear the car to say, but it could also be a dying catalytic converter or muffler.
