Truck simply won't start. We have replaced the glow plugs, the fuel pressure regulator, the fuel pump and the filter. It is pumping fuel to the injectors but won't start. It just cranks and cranks. The manual says there are two (2) replacable fuses for the glow plugs, but it doesn't say if they or inline or where, and I can't find them. Do you have any idea what fuses it might be talking about or where else to check to solve the problem?

They are 2 inline fuses, also called fusible links, You first need to check the glow plug draw there is a relay on top of the engine that controls them and that is where the fusible links go to. You will have power on 2 of the connectors, then when you turn on the key you should have power on the other one which has the brown and yellow wires coming off of it. make sure they work first
