Water in fuel and black spark plugs. 1.9 petrol

I had water in the fuel tank due to a perished seal. The van was running rough until it stopped completely. That was 2 months ago.
Today I removed and emptied the tank. Replaced breather pipe seals in the top of the tank. Now this is were I think I've may have gone wrong. I reused the 2 gallons of petrol that had water in it, now without water. I guess I should of used fresh? The van starts but just dies when I take my foot off the accelerator. I also put in new spark plugs and they are now black with soot. The old ones weren't black. Any help welcome.
