Because of its location and potential difficulty in accessing it, it's best to consult a repair manual specific to your 1997 Dodge Caravan's engine (3.0L or 3.3L or 3.8L) to get the exact location and instructions. A visual inspection after you locate your vehicle's fuel tank might also be helpful in locating the filter.
Remember to always disconnect the negative battery terminal before working near fuel lines to avoid the risk of fire or explosion.
