The ABS would not shut off the engine, I suspect something with the engine is causing the shut down (fuel pump, or other things) and the ABS light gets triggered during that event.

I've had Caravans for many years and never had that problem however, if there is a cabin filter in the vehicle it is inside the air exchange box and you will have to open it to find the filter. Most likely in the top.

Check to make sure that the cabin air filter has been changed. If not this would be great place to suspect.

did you check in the owners manual for fuse location and check for a blown fuse

ITS LOCATED NEAR THE AIR CLEANER ASSEMBLY.WHICH THE AIR CLEANER ASSEMBLY HAS TO BE REMOVED BEFORE YOU CAN REMOVE THE PCM.

Sorry but it sounds like your transmition is bad.

You might have a crimp in the line between the filter and the rail ... or there might be a problem with the fuel rail itself. Best way to test for this is to detach the fuel rail from the line (like you did at the filter) and see if the gas is making it that far. If you have someone crank the engine for you while you have the fuel rail detached, the fuel pump should cause gas to come out of the line -- if this does not happen, the problem is with the line between the filter and the rail. If it is still working at the end of the line attached to the rail, you might have a blockage in the rail or faulty injectors.
If you are going to do all of the work yourself, I recommend a Haynes manual -- it will give you a list of problems that are common to your year, make and model with solutions, as well as directions and pictures / diagrams to make sure you are doing the work right.

yes its berry cumin issue with the transmission you my wanna get a tune up on the trani see if that helps

It should if it doesnt the problems with the gauge itself. 2 test disconnect the wire harness, did the gauge go down. the problem will be in the sending unit can be a hung float(Rare).

The Chrysler minivan products all had leaking problems. I have had 5 or 6 different Dodge or Plymouth minivans from 88 to 99. How bad is it. The most common thing is Valve cover leaks. Front and rear seals in the engine leak as well as the oil pan gasket. If its leaking a little bit at a time open the hood and look at the front and rear of the engine. Do you see grease and oil that has gone down the sides of the engine? Do you see a lot of grease on the engine with some clean streaks going through it. You may be able to see where its leaking from. If you know someone that knows what their doing have them change the leaky gasket/s. If not you can probably have it repaired for less than buying another van unless other things are seriously wrong with the van.
Hope this helps... Dale

If this is mainly a COLD start problem, then please start by checking the quality of the engine. Assess the compression ratio, the valve settings, the fuel settings and timings.
Make sure the fuel pump is calibrated and finally the battery must have good current on cranking the engine to allow the engine to fire.
I would recommend that instead of changing a part on assumption, please identify if this is a fuel or firing issue and proceed to check the section. Alternatively the scheduled maintenance must be done as required for the mileage clocked.

Check and make sure the hose clamps are tight if they are than the hoses themselves are probably cracked and will need replaced also make sure that the filter has not rusted causing a hole and resulting in a leak. To relieve the pressure put a small container directly under the filter and loosen one of the clamps holding the hose onto the filter fuel will leak into the container the filter itself will probably drain out as well.
