| There’s a spot on the right side of the block towards the rear with a plate and two bolts. Agco sells a factory one for that location. |

Yes, that Kats number fits my AC185 and 200. Nice thing is it's 1000W another brand is only around 600W. I can't think of brand or number. ------------- AC 200, CAH, AC185D bareback, AC 180D bareback, D17 III, WF. D17 Blackbar grill, NF. D15 SFW. Case 1175 CAH, Bobcat 543B, |

PaulSamwel Here is my 185 which has the block heater installed on the RH side of the engine left of the fuel filter. The tractor was delivered new to our farm in 1975 with the block heater installed, probably by the dealer. Not a great close up pic of the area, but you can see the electric cord hanging down just in front of the starter  Hope this helps with your project ------------- 1963 D17D Series III. 1965 D15 Series II. 1965 D17 Series IV. 1975 185. 1978 716H. 1979 716H. 1965 780 Harvester/1R&DC. 1957 Model 73 SC 4 Furrow Plow |
