I measured the resistance of the plugs.

2 measured .9 ohms
1 measured 250 ohms
1 measured 800 ohms
1 measured 17k ohms

I am having my brother send me 3 new glow plugs. With only two out of 5 working, no wonder it is hard to start.

unkl300d,

Thanks for the name. I will make note of it for future reference.
