Confirmed, still old loop style. I know what I am talking about, thanks to all of you on this site!
I checked for voltage at the last plug in the block which is the first in the series. Nothing there at all. I figured if I found voltage there, I could solve any other problems from there in the series. The ground is good and working (I just reversed my ground on the battery to the positive and checked the ground strap for voltage with my meter) at the front of the motor which is the last in the series.
I figured there wasn't much sense in converting to the parallel fast pencil type glow plugs until the system worked first. I'm kind of quirky that way. If it works, don't fix it. If it don't then fix it the best way possible with upgrades after functionality.
Thanks for the fast reply,
Rick

If it has the newer style GP wired in paralel then the salt shaker does not glow anymore check individual GP to see if it is open (no resistance).
