Dude, I replaced the glowplugs in my 240D once in the parking lot of my
apartment complex at 7pm with SWMBO holding a flashlight, it was 10F...
If you want to be safe and sure just replace all the glowplugs, its not all
that expensive and not all that hard.

The valves were adjusted COLD.
I see no reason to R/R the glow plug fuse (it either works or it
doesn't - right?) but I could R/R the glow plug RELAY if you think
that is worth a try. I don't have the wherewithal (unheated garage)
to remove and test the glow plugs.
Not aware of any leaks either either but I could pump the primer while
SWMBO is cranking.
If I plugged in the car prior to starting and it fired right up, what
would that mean with regard to these other possible issues?
