Time on glow plugs may also be function of compression. I have new pistons and rings so that no doubt makes it easier to start. 60 seconds does not sound unreasonable. Some tractors take even longer than that. I'd think twice about longer than 90 seconds.

Cold weather the engine takes forever to come to life. Russ, I've been thinking about changing the glow plugs...how difficult of a job was it?
