Another Hint I forgot to add.  Once you get you glow plug light back in
the dash, I always hit my glow plugs twice.  After the light goes out the
first time, I do not try and start, but turn key off and hit them again.
 In the dead of cold, this helps to.  I replaced my glow plugs and relay
about 2 winters ago and what a difference.
