i never checked volts on the thermostart glow plug, but logically it should be battery voltage. unles the battery drop its voltage to 6V while heating, you have a voltage drop along the line to the plug, probably the switch. you can try to energize the plug by a separate cable directly from the battery (+) termibal and see if it helps the starting difficulty.
the initial fuel for starting with the thermostart comes, if i remember well, from a small reservoir attached to the fuel tank or , in other cases from fuel that remains in the fuel return lines. as soon as the engine is turned over, there is supply of fuel from the return line. the quantity that enters the manifold (when the glow plug is red hot)is controlled by the glow plug itself. (the hotter the plug the higher is the drip rate through the plug into the manifold).
