The SD has been reluctant to start recently (in the "cold" weather we
have here) so I just checked on it. Looks like the rearmost glowplug
(#5?) is bad, I get open (OL) reading on the ohmmeter while the others
are in the 0.6ohm range. The glow plug fuse and relay are OK, getting
12V across the fuse and at the relay pins until the relay clicks off.
None of the glow plugs seem to be warming up though (according to my
calibrated finger). Can that one bad glow plug cause the others not to
heat up?
I don't have a amp clamp, but if there is 12V at the plug wires at the
relay it should be getting juice to all of them?
I'll go out to make sure there is 12V at each plug connector to make
sure the connector didn't go bad or something.
That last plug looks like a bugger to get out too.
