You'll have to ask the previous owner. The engine was on a bowrider I've just bought, the seller said that they had rebuilt the engine but didn't replace the drive on the crank and this happened first time out.

OK just to clarify. The engine was already blown up when I bought the boat .

I WOULD NOT AND NEVER HAVE RUN THE OIL INJECTION ON A MERCURY OUTBOARD.

I posted the pictures for reference only, If you want to take the risk of using the oil injection this WILL eventually happen to your engine.
