I'm no expert but sounds like a clutch is going bad. There should be one clutch for gears 1, 3, and 5. Separate clutch for gears 2, 4, 6. I forget which clutch operates reverse. Good luck

16 & 17's had clutch oiling issues, the fix is changing out the housing that has the oil passage in it. Honda had a cough cough recall on it for a while. There is an id on the new housing, I can't remember what it was. It was a hot topic and you should be able to find it in the earlier shop talks here. And yes your # 1 clutch is probably fried. #Cummins-pusher can tell you all about it. Might as well change out both clutches while you're in there. Good luck.

1/3/5 clutch pack going south if not south already

Try the clutch relearn procedure first before changing clutch pack and make sure the update was done - if not - do the clutch cover update when changing clutch pack
