How does on de-cipher this ?

A 10X5 date code on your motor would translate into May 10th, 1993. As you might have guessed, the letter indicates the year. X=1993, Y=1994, Z=1995, A=1996, B=1997, etc. If I'm not mistaken, Estes started letter coding the year in 1975 and stopped in 1999 and then they went back to a numeric year from 2000 onwards.
