Oil Pressure and Temperature Not Working

[Backfire5]

Hello all.  I recently installed a Desert Kittyhawk P-40 with two optional panels into CFS1.  Do you have any suggestions to fix fuel and oil pressure gauges that read zero and an oil temperature gauge stuck on 20 deg C?  Also, the fuel gauge only registers fuel level with the selecter on the center fuel tank, but goes to zero with either wing tank selected even though the engine still runs.  Otherwise, the plane works and looks fine.  This is a great site, please keep up the good work.

I think that theyre just there for decoration, the oil temp never drops or climbs...(shakes fist) damn Microsoft!

Thanks for a response.  On CFS1, the engine oil temperature and pressure gauge displays are functional in the standard aircraft.  If you do a manual engine start, the oil pressure rises from zero to operating pressure.  If you enter a sustained climb at full throttle, the engine oil temperature will rise and can peg at the max gauge temperature.  The oil temperature will decrease at higher airspeeds, usually above 200 kts.  If your engine gets shot up good, the oil pressure will drop.  I guess my question really is, how are the oil temperature and pressure gauges linked to the aircraft model, and can that be edited/corrected without special software?  I don't mean to split hairs, but the CFS1 seems to be fairly realistic, and for me, operational engine gauges add a lot to the experience, especially on the higher quality aircraft models where a lot of good work went into building them.
