Why will turning the tub on Whirlpool top loader make it complete final spin? Washer will spin out water after rinse cycle, but on final spin, I have to turn the inner tub to the right to get it to spin.

If the final spin is a higher speed spin it may be a two or three speed motor and one of the start capacitors is bad or one of the motor windings is out. You could also check for a bad lid switch. Test the lid switch first, then test the motor start capacitors to be sure they are working.
