Motor was rebuildt over the winter due to burnt piston. First time out motor died at planing speed. After restart it ran rough. Spits sputters and backfired. Ran new gas with oil mixed to verify if oil injection was working. There is an intermittent "knock" accompanying the rough running. Don't know if it is piston related or timing issue or what. Have taken it back to the shop.

Did not find out what caused piston failure. Does not appear to be overheating. Did change prop prior to piston failure which increased RPM's but still in acceptable range
