Driver side DEAD and running awful.
My friend bought 99 late F250 with nearly 300K.
It was great 1 day it wouldn't start. they threw autolite plugs no work.
I came to look and it turn to be bad IPR valve wouldn't move.
Put new IPR valve it running GREAT.
Couple days later someone saw unhook ground cable from driver head. They thought it for glow plug relay to say it SPARK so they leave alone.
Now truck not running right. Check injectors on both sides.
Driver ZERO OHM nothing.
Passenger side had ohm vary 2.8-3.2
Thought bad valve cover gasket harness. Try new one SAME THING.
Do you think it ruin glow plugs and injectors ?
Cylinder contribution tester show 1 2 3 4 7 cylinders circuit contribution balance fault.

I thought it was completely normal for the IDM to shut down a bank of injectors to "protect" the engine if there was a problem.
This has to be connected to the spark jumping from the ground wire somehow. I don't think it's coincidental.

You need to get those autolite glow plugs out of there ASAP! I know this has nothing to do with your no start issue but the problem with those autolites is they get real hot and will weld themselves to the head and then your screwed. They also brake at the tip and will fall onto the top of the piston and bang into the top inside of the head and then you will have a ping sound in the cylinder for the rest of that engines life. You need to go with the OEM glow plugs from Ford or International.
