Welcome to the forum. +1 on new heater coil. Don't use just distilled water, make sure it's mixed 50/50 with anti freeze.

A coolant is a fluid which flows through a device to prevent its overheating, transferring the heat produced by the device to other devices that use or dissipate it. An ideal coolant has high thermal capacity, low viscosity, is low-cost, non-toxic, and chemically inert, neither causing nor promoting corrosion of the cooling system. While the term coolant is commonly used in automotive, residential and commercial temperature-control applications.
