Default Geba rebuilt water pump (pic)

I'm in a bit of a jam and this is my 3rd pump in a month after the last 2 rebuilds failed. I got this from somewhere else locally. normally i'd order a new or rebuild online from paragon, pelican or aims, but i don't' have time so i'm hoping this will work out.

the guy told me it's rebuilt by Geba. the casing is Laso. I can feel tiny play in the bearing but the bearing feels tight when I turn it. also looking at the pic it looks like the impeller isn't pushed in all the way or maybe that is normal. my other pump looked like it was pushed in more but it was a different casting also.

anyways going to install and cross my fingers that it doesn't leak or blow up my engine on my way back to school (500km drive).

Thanks, i'm leaving tomorrow and this was the only pump I could get so I took it.

I can feel a bit of play in the bearing when I which the shaft I can feel movement which doesn't make me confident in this pump. The guy at the parts store said it is normal to have a bit of play....

If this pump doesn't destroy my engine i'll replace it with a new one next summer, i'm just worried it'll blow up and take out my engine.
