How are you testing them? Where are you testing them? What setting on your multimeter? You're not doing something right if you have inconclusive results man

Sounds like bad glow plugs. Low compression is not likely.

Replaced glow plugs and reamed- can see them working properly with the injectors out.
None of these have helped with the issue. It does run great once warmed up though and seems very happy at high rpms.

It ran better for a day. Did the temperature vary from the previous cold start? Perhaps got warmer when it ran better that day?
