Pull the plastic cover off of the Glow Plug Relay and you will find 2 Electrical Connectors. Pull either or both of the Connectors.

If you only disconnect the wires at the Glow Plugs and let them hang and one of the wire end ground on the Engine Block when you try to start it will cause a Short and you will burn your Strip Fues on the Glow Plug Relay.

Also try loosening the Fuel Injection Hard Line Nuts at the Injectors to Bleed the Air out of the system. You want to see Fuel coming out from under the Nuts Before you tighten them and try to start.
When Air gets trapped between the Fuel Injection Pump and the Injectors the Air inside the Hard Lines compresses a lot and moves very little resulting in stress on your Battery and Starter.
