BTW there are more ways than an inductive amp meter to test the glow plugs.
If you have tested them all, and they all output heat on the bench when connected, then in the car, assuming you can measure voltage (around 10.5-11.5V) at the plugs then you can make the assumption safely that they are getting hot. Any ideas what is causing the problem? |

3 seconds is a long time but if you didn't see any catrostrophic failures on the bench you are probably okay. So, in the car, you are getting 11V or so at the glow plugs for sure? (Using a volt meter.) |

No problem. Just worth mentioning for those who may not know battery chargers do "magical" things |

Thanks for the great info PEH. That was like water to a thirsty mouth. I really dont want to hear my compression is bad but that sure would make sense. Im hoping that fuel start of delivery or injection timing could make just as much sense
