You said it requires two gauges, wouldn't one show you where you started and 
where it
leaked to. I've never done a leak down, don't they all leak some, so what 
amount is
acceptable.
I had the slow turning/hard starting 1.6 na a month ago(corrected with 
better grounding of starter)
With over nights getting into the 20's in chicago, I find the car starts 
well yet, it doesn't
run on all 4cyl's for say 2 mins, Am i to believe one or more glow plugs 
isn't warming
completely.
You mentioned using the bosch gp, i assumed one must also use the relay for 
those plugs.
