You may have a crack in the strip fuse of the glow plug relay, or the points on the relay may be so badly worn that it no longer reliably makes connection to power the plugs. A voltmeter is your friend here, measure from one of the GP studs to the block when it should be heating, if you have voltage, you may have dead glow plugs or fuel supply problems.
