Sounds like maybe a glow plug relay. Check voltage on the back side of the relay after turning the key on. Remember, this is a timed event... If it is the relay, remember that in a pinch you can use a screwdirver to jump the relay and glow the plugs...

Check out this thread for relay location and how to fix it right.
Welcome to guzzle's Modifications Web Page
Check out the "Stancore Glow Plug Relay Mod"
To check the relay you have, use the diagrams in the link above to locate the relay. Check it with a DVM. Turn the key on, and during the first 15-30 seconds or so, check the voltage across the relay. It should read something around 1V if the relay is working. If not it will read 12 V.
