Hey Winston. I have not tested those yet. I will be testing them this week when I get home from work!!

I tried to do the ohm test and got 1.2 on one and then some weird readings on the other 2. So I pulled them and hooked them to a 12 volt and they started glowing red. I also get 12 volts at each one when the glow plug light is on. So I think they are working although I couldn't get a good ohm reading

Pretty normal for most diesels, among 5 I've owned. The other 2: Isuzu diesel generator and VW TDI are exceptions. Neither of these ever chugged. Never know they are diesels.

It does sound like your glow plugs are working. I don't have an answer for you but still do not believe your video shows a normal crank in a heated garage. I can crank my CT235 at 32f after warming glow plugs and it will crank first turn without any display similar to your video.

This starts on the first crank. It just chugs for 10 seconds if that until the idle smooths out

You could try cycling your glow plugs twice, before actually turning the key to start. See if that helps.
