To all who are interested...the saga continues. Last night I finally completed the glow plug replacement. It was a nightmare - I actually did have a nightmare one night after working on the car. I had bad glow plug lodged in my stomach that the surgeon was unable to remove!!

Anyway, 5 of the 6 gps were stuck very badly. One electrical connection broke. Two gps were stripped from the 12 pt socket. Another later cracked in the head. After one week, all six were finally replaced.

I started the car last night in the garage - 28*F. It started and drove wonderfully - much better than before while cold. I parked her outside last night. This morning (5*F) I tried her again and NO START!!!!! - Same thing....crank, crank, crank and no fire.

Any other ideas???
