I just changed my plugs and wires and I am wondering if I need to reset my timing.

Nope. How does it run? There is no way to set timing its computer controlled from a camshaft position sensor and a crankshaft position sensor. I hope this helps.

I am still having the same problem. It feels like its still misfiring. It could possibly be a fuel flow problem. On that subject where is the fuel filter in the 2004 Caravan SXT. It has a 3.3 L V-6.

Is the check engine light on? When does it misfire? A fuel flow problem would be noticed at high rpm shifting gears, it would bog down.

It misfires when I start it and at idle. The check engine light went off after I changed the plugs and wires. I think it reset because I disconnected the battery when I changed them.

Id drive it until the check engine light comes back on if you can. Then go to parts store, they usually will pull codes for you for free, then tell us the codes.
