European engine to USA

[bigfrogman]

Hi All,

Hoping you guys can help me out. I have the following engine (see attachment) and I need to replace the lower unit. I'm struggling to figure out the USA equivalent engine number

Im especially interested in known the shaft length whether it is a 20 in or 25 in

What exactly does the X stand for in the engine number?

Thanks a lot

J = Jet Drive
L = 20"
S = 15"

It appears your motor is circa 2004. Closest USA model appears to be a 1999 S200TXRX if your motor uses carburetors. If it uses fuel injection it would be similar to US model SX200TXRC.

Yam99 has nailed the shaft length decode.
