Mdt aircraft has engine oil pressure warning light activate. Takeoff was aborted. Full runup was accomplished with no adverse indications. Second takeoff was fine until about 1200 ft when there was a fluctuation of the #2 engine pressure gauge. Return land.

Narrative:
On takeoff roll, just below V1/V2, there was a momentary illumination of the #2 engine oil pressure warning light. We aborted the takeoff immediately. We taxied clear of the runway. Oil pressure gauge appeared normal. On the taxiway we performed a full power engine run and closely monitored the oil pressure. All engine readings and indications were normal and no caution or warning light illuminated. On the assumption that the momentary warning light had been an erroneous indication and as there did not appear to be any problem with the oil pressure we proceeded with a second takeoff. All system were normal and no warning lights during the takeoff and initial climb. Out of about 1200 ft AGL we noticed a slight fluctuation of the #2 engine pressure gauge. After seeing this oil pressure flux, we returned for a precautionary landing without further incident.

Title: MDT ACFT HAS ENG OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT ACTIVATE. TKOF WAS ABORTED. FULL RUNUP WAS ACCOMPLISHED WITH NO ADVERSE INDICATIONS. SECOND TKOF WAS FINE UNTIL ABOUT 1200 FT WHEN THERE WAS A FLUCTUATION OF THE #2 ENG PRESSURE GAUGE. RETURN LAND.
Narrative: ON TKOF ROLL, JUST BELOW V1/V2, THERE WAS A MOMENTARY ILLUMINATION OF THE #2 ENG OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT. WE ABORTED THE TKOF IMMEDIATELY. WE TAXIED CLR OF THE RWY. OIL PRESSURE GAUGE APPEARED NORMAL. ON THE TXWY WE PERFORMED A FULL PWR ENG RUN AND CLOSELY MONITORED THE OIL PRESSURE. ALL ENG READINGS AND INDICATIONS WERE NORMAL AND NO CAUTION OR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. ON THE ASSUMPTION THAT THE MOMENTARY WARNING LIGHT HAD BEEN AN ERRONEOUS INDICATION AND AS THERE DID NOT APPEAR TO BE ANY PROB WITH THE OIL PRESSURE WE PROCEEDED WITH A SECOND TKOF. ALL SYS WERE NORMAL AND NO WARNING LIGHTS DURING THE TKOF AND INITIAL CLB. OUT OF ABOUT 1200 FT AGL WE NOTICED A SLIGHT FLUCTUATION OF THE #2 ENG PRESSURE GAUGE. AFTER SEEING THIS OIL PRESSURE FLUX, WE RETURNED FOR A PRECAUTIONARY LNDG WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.
