The glow plug should glow as long as it's attached to the igniter. If it glows for short time and quits, most likely the battery is dieing in igniter. Recharge or replace the battery and try again, if still a problem, try a different glow plug.

I don't know, haven't had one of that kind. You should be able to unscrew the top and take apart.

Sure shots are good for a bit. It would be a good idea to get a rechargable with a removabile battery. At the begining of the season you can buy another battery and be good for the season. If your plug stop glowin after 5-10 seconds it sounds like you have a bad glow plug igniter.

It sounds like a bad cell in the ignitor as well, to me. If the cell is fully charged and it is doing this, maybe there is bad contacts? Maybe cleaning the contact on the ignitor would help, maybe not?

Word of advise, please try to use the spell check function. It helps us to understand you better. (I'm not trying to sound like an ass or anything).
