Engine Oil Pressure

How would I go about regulating the engine oil pressure so as to turn off the annoying "low oil pressure" warning lights? I assume it is somewhere in the aircraft.cfg file. Even at full throttle the oil pressure stays too low to turn off the warning lights. The aircraft in question: DeHavilland Caribou C7 Bluestream Airlines; the default panel.

Being an Over-the-Road Truck Driver, anytime I see a gauge that is reading out of its normal range means trouble. I would like to see the oil pressure gauges reading in their normal range. When they aren't :-[, although it's only a game, it is irritating. Habit I suppose.

A program called AirEd.  It is in our library.... I think under "Utilities".

Be careful with it; you can royally screw up a model.  BACK UP original files!!!!!!

You could just delete that sound file.   I once had an annoying TERRAIN TERRAIN at 30,000ft which stopped after I removed that particular sound  file  8-)
