I am having trouble keeping all glow plug working. They were rusty so I cleaned (sanded) the spade connections on the glow plugs. (they were very rusty)I also cleaned the female connectors then put dielectric grease on them. I have 2 not working so I wiggled the wire and now they work. Do yall have problems? How do yall keep them from making a bad connection.
Thanks:

When everything was new, the GP tabs were brite-plated, and the female connector was either shiny brass or "tinned".

Unless you replace the wire connectors, and perhaps the GP's you will likely continue to have some poor connections there.

Crimp the female connector a tiny bit to make it grip harder. Creep up on the amount. The grease idea is good. Jim
