Pictures of the area in question will be very helpful in answering your questions. :thanku:

I've looked in the I&T 9-N shop manual and I'm not sure what hole you are talking about.

Here is the link to the PDF file 9-N I&T manual from the MTF Reference Library. May want to down load it and see if you can find the hole in the steering section with exploded views of the steering column.

If it's in the same located as the pull ign switch on the side of the steering column of my '41 (not the chome pull switch for the lights on the dash) Then it's the Ign switch hole.
Feb 26, 1941 it was moved to the side of the steering column.

Kirk

yep kirk same location as yours, now can i find one of these pull ign switches?

Key ign was original. pull switch was substituted for original switch.

Kirk

oh, so a key ign is still available?

Sure.

kirk is your light switch in the correct location?

This link will give you an idea of ignition switch options available for your 9N.

I believe the light swith is in the right spot. early models would have had the ign light next to it to the left.
