High temperatures Fractal-Design Kelvin S24

Hello . I bought it a pc from someone and he gave me that liquid cooler because it has been his previous one and he doesn't use it anymore. So I sold it to a friend and now he's having 74 C on IDLE and 86 while gaming . I assemble it for him . And i think i did it good. I read the manual " https://support.fractal-design.com/support/solutions/articles/4000054170-kelvin-s24-product-manual " for a intel 8700k cpu and i did like it's saying here. 

Now , from what i know from the last owner is that he didn't add more distillated water after like 1-2 years. Maybe that should be the problem? Should i add more water , and how do i do it? i know it has a screw for an allen key. I think that's where i should add it. And how do i know how much i should add?

He hasn't a great case , so i could only put the radiator to the top and unfortunatly the fans are above the radiator pulling air through the radiator into the case.I know it's bad. But i didn't think that would that be that bad to have 70+c on idle. Could that be a problem?

I think he has only one fan pulling the air out and 3 pulling air in ( 2 from the radiator ) . let me do a scheme for you.

So please , help me with this guys , if you need any information just ask.

Are you sure the AIO liquid cooler is working fine? Maybe the pump is malfunctioning?

When i plug the pump in , it makes  noise so i think it's should be working , like a "brrrrrr"

The sound it's a little loud with the case opened , while actually putting the case  under the desk and playing , you can hear it just a bit.
