Oil change
So, I did my second oil change today. When I drain the oil, I really don’t get that much out. When I fill it, I can only get about 5 quarts back in. Is that normal? I’m pretty sure that the oil capacity is much more.

You need to drain oil from 2 places -- the oil tank and and the crankcase. Two different drain bolts and replacement crush washers needed -- and they are different sizes. Also, you need to counter-torque the oil tank drain bolt.
Assuming you haven't been burning a lot of oil, you should be able to get out between 8-9 qts.

That’s right. I drained the crankcase last time. I forgot about draining the crankcase this time. I guess I’ll have to do it over. I was in a hurry.

It means to hold a second wrench on the case putting force in the opposite direction to that which you're turning the torque wrench to prevent damage.
