It' prob nothing minor.

Have you noticed any white, grey, or black smoke out the exhaust? Or a significant loss of power (like if the computer has shut down a cylinder or two)?

If not, it may be similar to the following in other's vehicles.

x2 on thedieselstop.com, there is a lot of good info on that site for all Ford superdutys, diesel and gas. I check it at least once a day.

Bummer Jeff. Hope it works out, but that doesn't sound good.

It still pulled the boat alright, Never got hot or noticeable lack of power? Wouldn't you know just got the pink slip in the mail last Monday LOL.

Looks like I might have a cracked injector cup or more? Wonder how much that is going to cost me ?
