That only tells you if the crankcase check valve is good and pressurizing the supply tank. The actual oil injection pump can still fail, no alarm sound, and bye bye engine. Mercury actually used a good system, but cheaped out on the 2.0/2.5l engines and used that nylon clamshell drive gear. Suzuki, yamaha, and the bigger Mercs all used a bronze crank gear, and they were very reliable systems.
