Engine start but shuts off in a second I change fuel pump and it run for two weeks, and start the same again I check if there is any trouble codes and it read p1665 code, and when I clear the codes it will start and run for a day or two and then start the same thing again, what could be the cause.

1665 is an evap solenoid issue and should have nothing to do with starting.

Are you sure of the code number?

As far as the other issue, did you clean out the tank as the dirt, may have caused the pump failure and also damaging your new pump.

Check pressure first
