You're a new boater as I have seen you ask many questions in this forum lately.

If I were you, I'd take the thing in to a Mercury mechanic and have them
check it out. Why run the risk of seizing the engine should the injection
system not be working?

For the peace of mind of it all, why not just have someone who knows the
engine take a look at it? You've worked too hard to get to this point.

Well said. And while you're at it, have them change the water pump
impeller. Unless you know for sure it is less than 3 years old, you should
change it to be certain it is fresh. This is a wear prone part and the
price of leaving it too long is engine overheating and possible meltdown.

Because I will bring the motor in for service/maintenance, I will ask
them to replace the water pump impeller. Thanks for the suggestion.
