After water pump repair of a closed loop water cooling system I have to refill the pump/system with a water. The questions are:
1. What water? I guess tap-water win't do the job and where to buy this "special" water from.
2. How exactly to refill the system so no air bibles are present? Just fill up the pump to the end and then screw the cold plate or there is more to it?

Boil water on chemical glass reaction tube, the vapor will condense and become distilled water. A liter distilled water is available on automotive shop for a $3.
Impossible without reservoir + hose clamp + matching hose fittings (the hose of AIO usually 10mm inner diameter and 12mm outer diameter). To do this you'll have to cut and chamfer hose end > plug cut hose from rad to res inlet and clamp > plug cut hose from water block/pump to res outlet.
After secure locking video googling on PC water cooling leak test/ air bleeding/ pump priming.
The loop must free form leak + bubbles, the whole process would be pain in the ass, I suggest you reuse air cooler for the mean time, your current pump just gonna fail again (had CM Nepton, fixed...
