Ford 1700 glow plug

Thank you for the info, l did have the injectors rebuilt this last summer. Never had the timing checked though. I have a feeling that maybe the problem. Will have to do some research on how to check the timing.

You should take the injectors out again and see if any pieces are in the cylinder and clean glow plug holes out from carbon build up , Maybe new injectors the rebuilt ones could be bad (maybe 1)

Was thinking about taking them out and having them tested, Also check the timing on the injector pump. Maybe she needs a little fine tuning.

That sounds like a very good idea. Make sure that the injectors are the correct ones. Look for numbers on the injectors and nozzles and compare to the parts list:
Official New Holland Online Parts Store and Online Parts Catalog for New Holland and Ford Tractors.

Let a diesel shop test opening pressure and spray pattern.

Thank you both for your insight and taking time to help me out. May take little bit of time to do this but I will let you know what the end result is

Great. It is easy to think of bad quality plugs when they fail over and over again. But if the indicator works with new plugs, you have the correct voltage at the plugs and the damages are not looking like coming from heat inside, then the problem is elsewhere.

Your efforts may help others in the same situation, and save money for them as well.

One thing that gets over-looked is the nozzle washer.. its #11 on the parts list..
If the washers are doubled up, THAT could cause A LOT of problems...
Just another thing to check..

Will do, just looking through the service manual, starting to wonder if the delivery valves in the injector pump may be worn or weak causing fuel dribble on the glow plugs. Last time l pulled the injectors to get rebuilt l did notice alot of carbon on the tips of the injectors and inside the chamber
