First troubleshoot that 120. Lots of things can "stick" an engine, and not all are fatal.

Second others that the four banger is a good bit rougher and unsocial. Running hull speed the burn rate on a four will be only a little better, not enough to force a decision.

I doubt you are using 70hp to go 7kts, probably more like 30.
