what do you mean by jump. Like the rpms go up alittle faster than they should and your not really going. Almost like you just rev'd it for a sec. because if thats the case it could be the clutch

are you loosing any performance when this happens? is it like a hesitation/stumble in the engine before it gets on it? you have a very vague description of your problem, with some more detail we can disect the problem better
