If there is a easy way to test them individualy, I just replace the ip and i look at the glowplug and they look very old! when I start the truck before the pump switch it was very good , almost no smock , but going with so many try, and i am about to bleed the system, mayby it is time to replace them!

Pull the plug off top of the glowplug (GP) and check with an OHM meter. The meter wires connect between the top of the GP and anywhere nearby on the metal engine. Normal resistance should be around 0.5 - 1.0 ohms.
