Noticed as I was unscrewing that the screws were not real tight.
After careful inspection reinstered fuse and snugged up screws tighter
than they were.
Cannot say which condition caused the resistance.
But... I started connecting one glow plug at a time to the harness
and turned the key to on after each connection to check voltage
at the glow plug harness. After each connection I continued to get 12 volts
at the glow plug. I was waiting for it all to drop off again, thinking that
maybe one of the glow plugs was grounding/shorting.
Got to the last one and still get 12 volts when key on.
Buttoned it all up and car started just like I am used to.
Thank you everyone.

The bad connection of the scews not being tight was the resistance.
