I'd think one of the plugs is possibly faulty, you need them checking by someone competent.

hi
just to let you konw, i have fixed the problem and it was the main wire leading to the glow plugs. I replaced the connector and it starts first time every time and the wire is not hot anymore. Such a simple thing as a bad connection. thanks dave
