Have you done a compressoin test?

Id start there, 200k is quite a few miles.

Do a compression check. If it checks good, give us more info. Does it idle at the 750 RPMs when warm? Does it idle at all? Is smoke coming out of the exhaust? Is it making weird noises? That kind of info can help us help you.
