recently, my engine is running extremely low when stopped, about 200 rpm. Anyone knows what's wrong with it? :confused:

probably your idle control valve. theres plenty of posts about it. give it a clean and see how you go. have a search and see what you can find.

Bad Spark Plugs could be the cause. Or possibly a distributor problem.

Try shorting the ECU plug and look up the error code(s) if any.

if its a sudden drop in revs....IMO search either electrical or vaccuum connection is loose. Look aroudn your engine bay for any loose groundings ( off block , gearbox , thermostat , battery etc) or check all pipes around the inlet manifold are secure.
Good luck!

EDIT also try my ECU check for codes...
