Even so we know this as a clutch assembly on other washers, "Splutch" is a term used for the Whirlpool washing machines. It refers to the cam assembly kit (or splutch kit). This assembly is a main component of the transmission system. It can wear out over time and running heavy loads with a full tub of water can shorten the lifetime of a splutch. Poor wash performance as well as grinding noises while washing, are a sign of a worn splutch.

To work on this replacement, you will need to gain access to the bottom. It is best to place the washer on its front. Place a few old blankets etc. so as not to scratch the front to much. Since I did a total rebuild on this washer, I had also removed the control panel. It was easier for me to place the washer upside down :-)
-
First the pulley cover has to be removed. It is attached via two 5/16 bolts
-
Use an electric screwdriver with a short extension and a 5/16 socket to remove the right screw,
-
-
-
followed by the left screw, is easiest. A hand ratchet or a nut driver will of course work as well.
-
Remove the pulley cover
-
Now clearly visible are
-
The motor
-
The drive pulley
-
The shift actuator
-
The start capacitor for the motor
-
-
-
To remove the drive belt, lift one side up
-
and then pulling it to the drive pulley while continuing to pull up on it.
-
The belt will eventually run off the pulley
-
-
-
-
The pulley is held in place by a 13mm nut
-
Using a ratchet and socket to remove it.
-
Since the pulley will easily turn when using the ratchet, it is best to tap the ratchet handle by hand instead of trying a continues motion. It is common thread (Lefty Loosey). Of course, an impact wrench would be simpler :-)
-
The nut does come of fairly easy once it is loose.

Remove the drive pulley from the shaft. Next is the drive basket gear.
-
The drive basket gear sits on a spline on the drive shaft. Check the spline on the basket drive shaft if the teeth on the basket gear show damage.
-
There are four tabs that hold the splatch housing to the gearcase
-
-
-
more of the latches of the splutch housing.
-
To remove it, simply twist the splutch housing into the direction of the slotted tabs (counter clock wise) until it comes free.
-
One the latches are cleared, lift the locking ring and the splutch housing to remove it from the shaft.
-
-
-
It is important to check the splines on the drive gear. If it is severely damaged make sure that the drive shaft is in good working order.
-
Remove the splutch spring.
-
Once more, check the spline on the drum drive for any damage
-
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
