No such thing as glow plugs on a Cummins. I believe what you're talking about are the fuel injectors, this isn't a distributor pump type engine. See this cutaway:

Absolutely beautifully clean 24-valve you have there!




Thanks much. Had no idea obviously but I do now.

Nice and clean, keep up the good work, and don't change a thing. You found the perfect combo for your engine and driving habits.
 
my idea is that good oil AND the engine runs as hot as it can. the pcv system is working right. if the pvc is right the moisture will be very low, acid will be low if the moisture is low. just my idea.
