i understand that there are at least two relays for the glow plugs... check and see if they are both working...

in the older GM diesels.. there is a relay under the hood and a relay in the dashboard somewhere.. maybe search for glow plug wiring schematics and you can figure out where the relays are... you might as well start simple and maybe find out its just the glow plugs arent engaging correctly. If its not that, than idk, i've just started working on my diesel and im learning little by little.

It sounds to me like it could be an injector pump... If it is be prepared to spend some money!!!
