## Discrepancy

NR 4 LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON.  THROTTLED BACK BUT LIGHT STAYED ON.  SECURED THE NR 4 ENGINE.  ALSO THE NR 3 LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON.  THROTTLED BACK AND LIGHT WENT OUT, BUT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY.  AIRCRAFT DIVERTED TO LOUISVILLE.  REPLACED THE NR 4 AND NR 3 ENGINE OIL LOW PRESSURE SWITCHES IAW DC-8 MM 79-32-02-2.  OPS CHECKED GOOD.
