If the S90 system is like that on a 240, the occurrences that cause the oil light to go out are not the same as those causing the amp light to go out.

Oil light is dependent on oil pressure, amp light on alternator charging.

Are you using an oil wieght with a low first number? Like 5W-30 or 0W-40? Unless weather is cold, the lower viscosity oils can take a little longer to build up pressure.

Just my two-cents worth.
