Go to fomotovalve.com and they should have a spec sheet with your vehicle on it and that should take care of it for you.
The specs are M14-1.5
That's an F-106 Fumoto valve. (Confirmed at the Fumoto site). I still recommend the one with the nipple. I love the nipple. And who doesn't?
I use a 10 quart gas can with a gooseneck spout that fits right over the nipple. The can fits just right under the Sprinter and perfectly holds the 9.5 quarts of oil. The DEF jugs are the same, with a gooseneck pour spout and is 10 quarts. I think the Promaster is 6 or 7 quarts, depending on the engine, so that would work. Chrysler dealers throw out dozens of empty DEF jugs a day, they'll give you as many as you want. I dump my oil at Walmart or Autozone (unscrew the pour spout instead of trying to pour all that oil through the spout, of course).

I have purchased one from this site and it isn't the correct size. It's way to small! I've contacted then and they have asked for "size and thread pitch" therefore the inquiry.

I can probably measure it myelf however not until the next oil change. I figured Fomoto would have been the ones to search and find that information if they wish to continue to sell these for this model.
The fact that they asked you for the size and threads is mind boggling. They should have been on the phone to Chrysler immediately to find out for themselves.
I did check a few places (auto parts stores) for replacement drain plugs, and they all have M14-1.5 as the size. (same size the Sprinter takes, BTW). So I don't know what's going on. Everybody's getting their wrong information from the same place.
