Difference in model 1977 115hp

[whitejamie99]

I have found a manual for a 1977 TXL 115 hp Johnson. What is the difference between the TXL and the ETL for that year. I have an ETL and I'm assuming it has something to do with the lower unit, i.e. long shaft, etc.<br /><br />Jamie

I think you are correct, Jamie.<br /><br />T is the code for T&T, XL is the code for Extra long (25") shaft. E is the code for electric start. I think their format only allowed three code letters before the year code, so the E was left off the TXL.<br /><br />That's my guess, anyway. The manual should work fine.<br /><br />Good luck.
