You never did answer where you were located and the temps there.

You might simply have a weak battery. You might have a bad DP connection. You might have a bad CPS.

Charge the heck out of the batteries and try to meter them while cranking. Gp's should not be the cause of this engine not starting at any temp above freezing for sure.
as far as mods, i just get on here and do what people say. ive never got into the motor though. im getting ready to do the glowplug install in a few minutes. ill let you guys know how it goes. bought new batteries a few months ago, so im sure thats not it. i thought about the cps, might try that too. DP connection is good, checked that. ill be back soon with results. its glowplug 1 and 7 so i got all 4 for the passenger side, so we will see.
