I would pull the plugs out and make sure they are not autolites (unless you can tell by looking at the ends that are sticking out that they are not Autolites).
The reason is that after 6 months of use the Electrod tips of 2 of my Autolite Glow Plugs had swollen to the point I was afraid they would not come out of the head.
Somewhere there is a Thread that has pics showing what looks like the tips actually exploded on some Autolite Plugs.
