Regarding glow plugs , yes you have the idea . They are not likely to fail shorted . more likely open circuit . but see what the resistance is ...

I just want to check before I start that I am looking at the glow plugs at the top there in the attached photo?

When looking at videos online the glow plugs wernt situated conveniently on the top like that, they were in awkward to reach places behind pipes, more towards the front. But as Ive got what looks like my AC cylinder there Im guessing myy plugs are on top?

Thanks
