Glow plugs. I didnt actually do the work. I didn't have the time. I only had 3/5 working on my 300D and man does those last two make a huge difference.

Last week, with only 3/5, long glows AND a block heater is took a considerable amount of cranking to start.

Now with 5/5, no block heater, fires up and idles smoothly very quickly.
