what brand of plugs are you installing. if you wanted to keep doing what you are, wellman makes dualcoil glowplugs that can be held on for a max of 15-20 seconds.
only run motorcraft or buer glowplugs. do not run autolite, bosch or any other cheap brand. they will swell the tip and possibly break the tip off. once the tip breaks off, you will have to pull the head. these engines can not pass the tips. when the piston is at TDC, there is only enough room between the piston and head for 7 sheets of paper.
