U have to take off the "common rail" that feeds all the gps..
Put the meter on ohms & put the leads on the top & the block..
U should see no mare that 2 ohms.. any more & the gp is no good..
IF your testing for voltage TO the gp's.. put the meter on 12v & Touch the + to the "rail" that feeds all of them & the - to the battery - or the engine block.. & have someone activate them w/ the key switch.. u should see 8-12v..
I NEVER LIKED using an ohm meter to test them.. I ALWAYS took them out..
Good luck & I hope u find the problem.

SOME of those small engines need GP's to start if its 90* out..
I've never see a 12v system w/ a 6v gp system..
Run a long hot wire off the battery straight to the gp rail.. & either hold it on or use some alligator clips.
Did u "test" the gp's yet..

Use full throttle, but knock it back if it fires

Glow plug test is very simple!
They will feel warm to hot just after a cycle and this while still in place.
While being 'cycled' the glow plug buss bar reading will be somewhere around 9 volts due to the high current draw.
If so then fuel delivery is the next issue to check with bleeding the most probable 'cure'.
I like to bleed right up at each injector by simply cracking the fitting until I get a fuel leak.
While best to bleed each injector, doing only one will get mine to put-put stutter for a bit and then roar on all 3 cylinders shortly.

I swear it seems like something is draining the battery noticed the negative is getting hot fast all 3 injectors are getting fuel and hooked seprate battery to glow plug bar light got really red but still no start not trying to be a pain in the *** but recently bout a house and don't have allot of extra funds so trying to fix this myself

Do NOT put any ether in the intake of the engine. It's a quick way to have a bigger headache than you now have! If a GP is working, and you spray ether you may end up with a bent rod, or other damage!
