The washer wouldn't drain out all the water. The washer tub overflowed and water came out from under the washer. In trying to drain out the washer it started clicking on and off while trying to spin out. I stopped the washer and tried again. Now all I get is a very loud clunking noise when I try to spin it out.
Does the washer currently work fine aside from the loud clunking noise? Does the clunking noise continue or is it just one loud clunk when it starts to spin? If its just one loud clunk then that is not a problem just ignore it as that is the clutch spring releasing, it probably starting making noise from the grease getting washed off when the washer over filled.
However how did the washer overfill? That issue should be addressed too. Sometimes though, if the tub is not centered from a heavy load the water will spill over the back but its not really an overfill.
SOURCE: loud cliunking noise in beginning of spin then won't spin
get a flashlight and see if a foreign object has fallen down through one of the tub holes and is jamming the tub you have to look real close
SOURCE: Washer makes clunking noises.......
You didn't give to much detail about the noise, other then clunking. Does it sound like it's metal against metal? Does it sound hollow? When does the noise take place before, during or after the spin cycle.
The easiest thing to do is check to see if the motor is loose, or if you might have too much slop or slake in the belt, if you do then replace and readjust the belt.

sounds like you have a bad drive block and possibly a bad basket drive I would stop useing it before you create damage to the basket drive. take the agetator off. sometimes they have a dispenser for fabric softner take it off or it will just have a cap remove the cap with a putty knife. next you will either see a bolt 11millimeter or you will see a hole that looks like a square. remove this and pull up on the agetator to takeit of next you will see a clip it will be somwhat greasy remove it. look at the shaft you will see a nut that screws the basket down to the drive block. If the drive block is raised up off of the basket drive sometimes you can hammer it back down onto the basket drive make sure that you line the ears up female on the drive block and male on the basket drive. Before hammering back down though you have to remove the spanner nut. But if you have been useing this like this you may need a basket drive and pretty much have to rebuild the whole washer. But I would start by hammering down the drive block or replacing it. let me know thanks //eg

You have a broke motor coupling broken between the motor and transmission the part is not expencive but a little hard to explain how to put it in.

After the clunking skreeching noise it will not spin. The washer overflowed because it became seriously unleveled.
