Description Horsepower Designator Method Length Method
B = Inshore Series F = Four Stroke Example: Any letter appearing between Prop T = Power Trim S = 15" R = Remote
C = C Series X = OX66 Advanced 6 Shaft Horsepower and Starting/Tilt and Tilt Model L = 20" Control
D = Twin Propellers Fuel Injection 9.9 Method is a “New Model with Electric X = 25" H = Tiller
E = Enduro Series Z = HPDI® 90 Designator”. Where used, these Start U = 30" Handle
F = Four Stroke (High Pressure 150 distinguish enhancement(s) to an P = Power Tilt J = Jet
L = Counter Rotation Direct Injection) 250 existing outboard model sufficient with Electric Drive
P = Pro Series 300 to deem it a new model, or a com- Start Unit
S = Saltwater Series pletely new outboard that is a E = Manual Tilt
T = High Thrust direct replacement of an existing with Electric
V = V MAX® Series outboard model. Start

NOTE: After 2005 model year production, new models being produced will no longer have the last
letter of the model code which typically has designated “Model Year” (i.e. 90TLRD will now be
90TLR). Engines produced in April 2005 and later will require the complete PID (model code and
serial number) to locate the proper service and parts information.

Please note all other Yamaha outboard models will continue to use the current model code system at
this time. “Generation” codes will change at such time new Yamaha outboards models are introduced.
Model codes will utilize this new and simpler format at that time.
