I pulled the quick disconnect drain plug all the way out. No additional oil came out. The dip stick still reads about a quart.
so the total removed was 1 3/4 quarts and the stick read almost 4qts before I started

Alon c90 oil change was created by Keith Whitcomb
I know I’m not getting all the old oil out. I know this engine was designed for taildraggers. Nose high, tail on the ground. Which may aid in draining all the oil. My aircraft came to me with a push style quick drain installed where a plug should go. But even when I wire up the drain bucket and hold the tail to the ground. I only get about 2 quarts out. The dip stick still reads 2 quarts after the oil has been drained.
i have no idea how far the quick disconnect threads into the oil pan.
Anybody have a clue? Removing the lower cowling every oil change doesn’t sound like fun.
