Where is fuel filter on a 1997 Dodge 2500 360 My gas mileage went for 16 MPG to less than 5 changed plugs but need to try filter also?
The fuel filter is mounted in the fuel pump module on top of the fuel tank. It is considered a lifetime filter and is only changed when the pump is replaced.

Change you air filter, and clean the throttle body.
