restoring a rollover

05 excursion 6.0 Heard I was suppose to removed glow plugs to purge possibly oil filled cylinders that was a job. Turned it over 2 twice with a 30 sec rest. Went to get new glow plugs, thought I'd turn it over again before install and nothing, might be the battery only had one hooked up. Could I have shorted something out just turning it over with glow plugs out? Also do you have to replace the plastic wire cover just above the glow plug cap/cork, they cracked just a small gap when taking them off.

Yep wrong section.

However, the glow plug harness should be replaced each time it is removed.
