If in doubt, pull them out and bench test them (carefully).

or if you in a pinch for time just buy all new ones replace them and keep the good ones for spares and toss the bad ones. You will eventually need to replace a few anyway. You take them out to glow test them why not just put in new ones...its cold out. I hate working in the cold.
