More than likely, previous owner knew it was going bad. But, then again, perhaps not.
The valve is either stuck open or burned to a crisp. It is not cheap to fix, but once fixed will be good for a long while. There are 20 valves, and I suggest you get new guides for all 20.
Actually $1100 is not a bad price, half is the labor to get it back in properly.
