Hi Aurorastar24, welcome here So, they charge an about 400 dollar over the cost of a new fuel pump. I think that's rather general tho, like everywhere else, no? Have you inquired at other places? I know the Haynes Repair Manual includes instructions how to replace a fuel pump - but it's quite complex... If I find anything online I will let you know, here

ware is the fuel filter on a 98 winstar located.

FILTER BACK BY TANK UP IN FRAME.I THINK ON DRIVERS SIDE.LOOKS LIKE A SMALL WELL HOUSE PRESSURE TANK SMALL SIZE.NEED SPECIAL TOOL TO RELEASE FUEL LINES.
