Josh,

I sincerely hope you don't get into the level of problems that I'm having with my daughters '81 300D. I'm sure you won't.

Have you put a voltmeter on the glowplug connector to ensure that they are getting voltage? In the past I have had very good luck by screwing in all new glow plugs, when the car gets to this point.

I think your next step should be to check the voltage at the glow plugs. If the voltage is there, next pull a glow plug or two.

Just because the glow plugs have continuity, doesn't mean that they are good. I have seen holes burned in the shell of these type plugs.

Good luck, and keep us posted, we'll get you through it somehow,
