Help;Fuel Pump?

okay so I'm have some problems with my civic. I'm thinking I'm having a problem with my what is now my fuel pump motor. I recently changed out the solenoid purge valve on the charcoal canister because I got an error code p1457 hoping for the check engine light to go away. the symptoms I was getting we're some stalling at stops, bad fuel economy, jumpy rpms around 2500, jumpy rpms when accelerating, and rough idle when I put it into reverse. today I opened the up the tank to examine the pump to see that it was kind of leaking where the fuel line met the electrical plug in at the seal before you take the pump out. I inspected it to see normal wear and tear but nothing seemed to be broken. I don't know what the problem could be other than a bad pump. feedback is accepted thanks

What is the history of the spark plugs? When changed and what kind? Air filter new? Any CEL with codes? What year is your Civic?
