You need to retrieve the trouble code to find out what is triggering the glow plug to flash.

The same thing happened to me, so as I was asking mechanics of possible fault the light came off and never occurred again.

It could be the diesel that you put in and if you check for trouble codes, you might find a history of what happened.
