The guy(or gal) you bought it from made it run too rich or too lean for it to start for you, now the glow plug is fowled? Did you try and put a new plug in it? How is the temp of the engine when it is running? A lot of blue smoke coming out of the pipe? It the pull start easy to pull( No Resistance?) What kind of buggy is it?

I'd seal the engine before going any further. Pick up some new fuel lines and a couple glow plugs. Make sure the fuel system is sealed, including the tank cap. Make sure the exhaust is sealed. Couplers are prone to leak after time. Find the factory carb settings, heat the engine up with a hairdryer and give it a go. Remember to make sure the ignitor is fully charged as well.
