The 2002 Dodge Dakota's fuel filter is installed above the gas tank in the 4.7 liter V8 engine. Typically manufacturers recommend changing the filter every 40,000-80,000 miles. Over time it can become clogged with debris and dirt causing reduced engine performance and economy. To prolong the life of the fuel delivery system, use the correct octane of gas in the tank. The Dakota holds up to 22-24 gallons of regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87. Routine oil changes are also a part of maintenance and the Dakota is equipped with 6 US quarts of 5W-30. Schedule oil service every 7,500-10,000 miles or 12 months if using full synthetic products.
