Operation: How to check the operation of the glow plugs

There are several ways to verify the correct functioning of the glow plugs, some a little empirical but certainly effective, and others more systematic and accurate. Once the spark plug seat has been intercepted, disconnect the relative pipettes and obtain a piece of electric wire that is not too thin and long enough to be able to reach all the glow plugs from the positive pole of the battery; then place one end of the wire on the positive pole of the battery and touch the glow plug with the other: if sparks are created, the glow plug is ok; on the other hand, the multimeter can be used both to measure the electrical resistance of the glow plug (the glow plugs should have a variable resistance between 0.6 and 2 ohms), or to check its continuity.
