This is difficult to diagnose without being there to see the washer, but I would go ahead and replace the assembly.

If you buy from this site and the part does not fix the problem you can return it.

Okay, that explains a lot. Also this machine probably a lot older than you think, and being in the residence before you means it probably did get lots of crud.
