Thinking i need to service my glow plugs, longer cranking to start now its colder. Looking like the top manifold needs to come off to service them unless i am wrong.
Any differing views?

Nothing wrong with the glow plugs, all measured within specs on the multi meter.
The fault is from this knuckle head who connected the bus bar power supply to the block thinking it was an earth.......
Blown fusable link at the battery is why the glow plugs are not glowing now.

Not my first mechanical error, probably won't be the last. Maybe someone will read of my sillyness and not make the same mistake.PC Challenger. TJM bar and winch.
