When the temp. Is below 30 degrees outside my oil light comes on. And it is not low on oil. If the temp. Is warmer outside this dose not happen.

Make sure you are using the proper viscosity of oil. There is some reason that there is low pressure in the oil system, that is what triggers the light. If you are using too heavy a viscosity, it will not flow enough to create the necassary pressure for the engine.
