Check/change your transmission oil. It might be low, or the synchros might be going bad.

I don't know about the "jumping"...

Jumping? How high? Seriously though, sounds like your mounts are shot... unless you can describe the problem better?

It could be a few different things. When that happened to me it was my tps and my throttle body(bad jdm tps and a sticky throttle). Or it could be miss firing because you havent done a good tune-up in a while, or even you distributor is on its way out.
