As Gale Banks prepares to debut the new Banks diesel crate engine program, he wants to know as much as he can about synthetic motor oil. How is it made, what additives are used and why, and what qualities define a superior synthetic motor oil? These are just a few of the questions he aims to answer during this 4-part tour of AMSOIL's Superior, Wisconsin manufacturing plant.
