Charcoal canister, canister purge.

88 5.0 tpi. Me and a friend replaced the fuel sender and a couple days later my car wouldnt move more then 5 mph , it would buck really bad.. Gm code 25 came up but went away upon next start up. I pulled into autozone and noticed i was leaking fuel out from the intake area. After looking i noticed fuel was coming out of my canister purge.. So i switched the fuel lines and unhooked the vaccume lines to the canister and it ran fine with a slight erratic idle. When i hook the lines back up the car bucks.. Is there a way to clean the canister or do i need to replace it. Fuel doesnt come out anymore.
