Injector Cup Cracked Questions

Fuel in the coolant - lots of it. From reading posts this can only be caused by a cracked injector cup.

Questions - is this a rare occurrence or a common flaw in the engine? Am I doing something to have caused this?

Thanks,

Not rare, but not really common either....at least for as many trucks that are out there! Swamps Diesel has the tools to replace them along with the parts. I think they loan the tools for a deposit on them.
