A sputtering engine with low power and a lot of smoke from the exhaust with an eventual stop are also indicators of water contamination. You should be aware that any fuel which is contaminated with water, regardless of whether your vehicle uses diesel or petrol , will always fail the engine resulting in an untimely stop.
A lot of modern diesel engines make use of AdBlue, a system that cuts down the pollution of the engine.
