accesive heat from a slipping clutch could be causing your problem if the mesh is set correctly. another issue if you jump alot could be motormount screws backing out and allowing the motor to move ever so slightly loosing your good mesh. make sure to locktight everytime you reinstall the motor. also check the motor plate for small cracks as this will disturb the mesh of the gears. hope this helps

ya i was going to suggest checking the motor plate to see if its bent, which will mess with the mesh and chew spurs!!

use a piece of paper to set the mesh its a good easy way to do it..

also check the input shaft on the transmission... if its bent it can mess up your gear mesh...

Most likely what Micky said .. your clutch is slipping
