I suspect you have tired glow plugs, a weak battery system, a tired starter and a tired engine. I would really like to see you go with new glow plugs. They are not a lot of money and will really make a difference. Then try to get the best possible battery hook up and charge. Slow cranking and 2 or 3 bad glow plugs will ruin the day for anyone trying to start a diesel that has been sitting for a year or two,
