Default Catalytic Converter?

So while coasting in gear, my car, a 99 sl1, starts to kind of feel
like it's misfiring. if I tap the gas, it will stop, and I can
conitinue to coast, until it does it again in a few more moments.
Someone said that this could be from a faulty Catalytic Converter - is
this true? just gave the thing a tune up hoping that was the
problem.

I haven't replaced the fuel filter; could this be it?

What else? Any help is appreciated!

Before you replace anything, stop by any Autozone store and they will read
the stored diagnostic codes for no charge. It beats guessing and replacing
parts that may not need to be.
