6.0 unknown cause

KENTUCKY DIESEL

New member
I just acquired a 2005 6.0 F250 truck that was not running right so my scan tool pointed to number #7 cylinder. After removal of the head, I discover one cracked piston, the truck still runs but has no power nor does it have any kind of knock. what would cause this to happen? im think gasoline was introduced at some point but I want to get everyone else's opinion. I've attached picture

a cracked piston wouldn't necessarily cause a knock. It may cause a decrease in power but not "no" power. I would bet the injectors are tired but would require more in depth diagnosis to go from here.
