You can double clutch it into 2nd or simply time the shift. 145 lbs. per cyl. would be nice. The important thing is that the cylinders balance/read closely. Try a level spoonfull of graphite in the transmission...try some 140 weight also.
You might hear growling in the front axle(s) this is a wheel bearing. The Geo has two per wheel and they are tedious to change but a "do" with normal tools. Some people into bearings will have them for $13.00 each...Auto Zone is $30+ and Napa even higher. Get a seal also. Grease the boots heavily and might as well fill the steering boot with grease also.
What year? Some pawn shops have manuals for $5
