To save a file using UTF-8,

set fenc=utf-8

See

:help fenc
:help 45.3
:help 45.4

I don't see how that will help with your problem, though. Vim saves
end-of-line markers according to the 'fileformat' of the current
buffer. See

:help ff

The characters used for end-of-line markers are all ASCII characters
and are in the range of characters whose codes are common to all
character sets (as I understand it) including latin1, ISO-8859-x,
and UTF-8.

Changing to UTF-8 is not going to change the way Vim saves
end-of-line markers.
