Your cars battery might only need charging or battery acid replacement, but if you'd realy wish to buy new one, buy one with the same size and voltage and amps as the one you have right now, or you could buy a battery with the same voltage with a higher amppere-hour (Ah) rating!

Battery size depends on the electrical needs that your van came equipped with. The owners manual can tell you the battery size that should be installed. If you no longer have the manual then you should check with the local dealer for the proper battery size. A battery of 825- 850 amps can work to start and run your vehicle. Hope this helps.

Need a fuel system diagram for 1996 Dodge Caravan 3.3 liter

According to the parts book, the filter comes with the plastic lines attached, and should be in front of the gas tank.
It makes a difference if the van is a long or short wheelbase model.
Some models after 1996 had the filter in the tank.

I need to know where to find the child anchor for a 1996 dodge caravan

There are no child anchors on a 96. This was around the time the latch system was under development. Just went through looking into this for my 1996 van. chico car seat fit well

The newer van seats will not fit either( I do have a 2007 seat for sale now ) as I tried to make one fit in my 1996 van with the latch system and it didnt fit. Wheels right spacing too wide for the anchor points.

What is the battery amps for a dodge caravn 1998

You didn't give me an engine size so I estimated the CCA (cold cranking amps) at minimum 685 for a 3.0 liter engine.
If you install this particular battery it will cover any one of the engines that were offered for you van at that time.
Good luck.
